Description
The shadows of the Sonny Rollins and Joe Henderson trios (both having recorded classic albums at the Village Vanguard) hover over this sparse, revealing trio outing from saxophonist Javon Jackson, legendary bassist Ron Carter and drummer Billy Drummond.And like his sax playing elders, Jackson put his own stamp on a set of well chosen jazz standards while also showcasing a few originals. "Sonny being a big influence on me, obviously there would be some things in there that would be reminiscent, or have that spirit anyway," says Jackson.
And while playing without a chordal instrument was a challenge in some respects for the saxophonist, he explains that Carter's presence more than made up for the absence of piano on this Chesky release. "Ron is kind of like a symphony behind you. He's the bass player, but he's the piano at times, he's the drums and he's out front with the melody. So he can be several things at once. With him there, there are so many colors that are available to me. So it's not out of disrespect to the piano, it's just that with Ron, we have a lot of opportunities. This trio setting just allows him to kind of roam a little bit and be more of a free safety, to use a football analogy."
