Шаблон:Infobox album

Craig Taborn Trio is the debut album by American jazz pianist Craig Taborn. It was recorded in 1994 and released on the Japanese DIW label.

Background

After completing Jurassic Classics with the James Carter Quartet, Taborn appropriated unused studio time to record this album with bandmates bassist Jaribu Shahid and drummer Tani Tabbal: "We three rehearsed for a couple hours before the hit and recorded for two days. I picked tunes that weren't too difficult yet were valid and representative of my stuff". Taborn wrote several of these songs for a straightahead, neo-bop style, and covered under-recorded compositions such as Ornette Coleman's "Compassion", Horace Silver's "Shirl" and John Coltrane's Paul Chambers featured "Bass Blues".[1]

Reception

Шаблон:Album ratings In his review for AllMusic, Ken Dryden says that the album "showcases the talented pianist in a variety of settings ranging from post-bop and hard bop to free jazz and avant-garde jazz."[2]

In a combined review with two James Carter's albums for Down Beat, Jon Andrews notes that "Taborn has the same omnivorous esthetic as Carter, assimilating contemporary piano styles as diverse as Keith Jarrett and Cecil Taylor."[3]
