Although Roger Kellaway, Gene Bertoncini, and Michael Moore had been friends for
a while, they really hadn't played much as a trio until they were spotted
together at the late lamented Zinno's in New York City in 1992. Before the month
was over, this studio session was completed. Bertoncini and Moore have long been
known for their work together, but the addition of Kellaway's eclectic piano
adds a new dimension to the group. Bertoncini's wild, difficult to label
"Soflee" is a superb opener, darting from its initially challenging
Tristano-like bop theme to realms of other influences, with great solos all
around. The pianist contributes the haunting "Heat of the Night," showcasing
Moore's matchless arco bass. But the bassist steals the top prize for
composition with his bittersweet gem "Old New Waltz," a beautiful melody that
has "jazz standard" written all over it. Bertoncini's lyrical acoustic guitar
makes this interpretation of "Estate" one for the ages. The closing "Jazzspeak"
track gives the musicians an opportunity to explain in their own words how the
CD came about and the unique chemistry of the trio. There's not one track within
the CD that is less than excellent.
