4.0 out of 5 stars
Lennie Tristano, cool and muddy, December 11, 2010
This is a very nice record, beautiful cover and fascinating playing by the trio Lennie Tristano (piano), Peter Ind (bass) and Tom Weyburn (drums). The only disappointment is the rather muddy sound, which is not typical for the mid 1950's recordings. Maybe one reason might be that these sessions were recorded during the years 1955-56 at the Lennie Tristano's Manhattan home-based studio by himself as a recording engineer. This album is available only in a new 180 g vinyl format and it is a new production. Despite the sound limitations it is highly recommended for every serious Lennie Tristano fans. Hopefully this will be published as a cd with a better remastering.
