5.0 out of 5 stars An Unknown Gem, November 2, 2001

I can't believe I'm the first to review this. Geri's playing on this recording is on par with Chick's on Now He Sings, Now He Sobs. For power packed, mathematical arpeggios soaring over Ron and Tony's propulsion check out RTG, Drummers Song and Feed The Fire. I can only chalk up the pleasure of owning this to living in Boston and talking to the Berklee students in the now defunct Tower Records. If you love the jazz trio format this is a must have.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the great jazz trio records!, April 23, 2009

Geri Allen is burning, Ron Carter is ON! but most impressive is Tony Williams--this might be one of his best straight-ahead records I have ever heard. If you are a Tony fan, you MUST own this.

This review is from: Twenty-One (Audio CD)

This female Jazz pianist can play from traditional jazz to free form,classic music,bebop style.That is this pianist has a wide range of musical capacity.In this album GERI plays her original songs with a distinct power and prowess.The sound she makes is so challenging and beautiful.Indeed,there is a crystalized beauty in her touch.In a sense well-controled touch of madness is to be seen.This album is a overlooked and underestimated album.This is a MUST ITEM for jazz piano trio fans.
