John Campbell - Workin' Out

On Workin' Out, his first recording since 1993, pianist JOHN CAMPBELL explores a programme of nine iconic jazz standards composed in the '60s and '70s that defined his formative years from the perspective of a quarter century in the jazz business.Joined by the first-call bass/trapset team of JAY ANDERSON and BILLY DRUMMOND, Campbell with keenly calibrated touch conjures fresh lines that embody cut-to-the-chase directness, always conscious of the fabric of the total trio sound.A superb recital.
