Looking for someone new in your collection...

(3 out of 5 stars)

"This CD would be a great addition to anyone's CD collection who LOVES Jazz and is looking to find someone "new" to add on the shelf. It has definate Corea overtones to it, but has it's own flavor to be sure. This album could have easily been an old ECM gem from the 70's. The sound that this trio gets is huge, its really great; and with out a drummer, or a bass player one might be wondering "how would a trio like this keep up the intensity?"; well, just pop it in a listen. The second track is worth the price of the CD alone, if you are a fan of composition as well as improvisation. The writing/arrangements are solid all around, which is such an overlooked part of any album sometimes, and the playing is great especially Geoff Keezer, not to overshadow the other guy's by any means, but yeah... WOW."
