On pianist and composer Geri Allen's third Blue Note album, Twenty One (recorded in 1994), she joined forces with Ron Carter and Tony Williams for a dynamic trio date. Allen's stunning lyricism and boundless, rhythmic creativity shine on this 2LP set that presents originals like "Feed the Fire" with choice standards by Thelonious Monk.
This Blue Note Classic Vinyl Edition is mastered by Kevin Gray from the original master tapes and pressed on 180g vinyl at Optimal.
Pianist Geri Allen has thus far been a very consistent performer, and all of her recordings are easily recommended. This particular set finds her in a trio with bassist Ron Carter and drummer Tony Williams performing six of her originals along with six jazz standards. Allen's style is fairly original, with hints of Herbie Nichols, and her chancetaking but logical solos are generally quite stimulating.
