by Scott Yanow
The music on this 1995 release was performed by the quartet of pianist Allen Farnham, bassist
Drew Gress
, drummer
Jamey Haddad
, and tenor-saxophonist
Joe Lovano
in 1986, the trio of Farnham,
Gress
and
Haddad
in 1992, and by Farnham solo in 1994. The pianist is best-known for playing behind other artists, including being the musical director for the late singer
Susannah McCorkle
. Throughout this set, Farnham shows that he is a solid, modern, mainstream soloist, sometimes recalling
Bill Evans
and (to a lesser extent)
Keith Jarrett
.
Lovano
plays well in his spots particularly on a medium-tempo "How Deep Is The Ocean." Farnham contributed four of the ten songs, and also interprets pieces by
Ralph Towner
,
Steve Swallow
,
Duke Ellington
,
Antonio Carlos Jobim
, and
Bill Evans
. Overall, this is an excellent effort, with enough variety in tempos and moods to hold one's interest.
