An elegant encounter between vibraphone and piano, where warmth and tension blend together.
This collaborative album by Milt Jackson and the Monty Alexander Trio features a soft vibraphone and delicate piano touches, creating a warm groove on the border between swing and soul.
The soft sound of the vibraphone complements the piano rhythm, creating a gentle breathing space between the sounds. The stability of the bass and drums supports the whole, creating a natural dialogue within the performance. The rhythm flows smoothly, the solos unfold effortlessly, and the closer you listen, the more you see the close relationship. The melody is warm yet solid, and elements of swing and soul blend naturally. Even the atmosphere of the recording resonates as part of the music, creating a soft interplay between the beauty of jazz and humanity on this album.
