Ltd. to 50 copies
This is an incomplete review as my promo copy of this album would only play the first three tracks but as I'd thoroughly enjoyed them I decided to still give this one a little shout out.
More jazz from the Knockensache label this time in the form of the London based Rick Jensen Trio. As ever there is no accompanying info but from what I can hear they are bass, drums and sax. The music here lacks the fire-power of the other Knochensache release this month (by KonstruKt) but they operate in an altogether more sedate and sinuous jazz arena than that other beast. It's clean and assured and nicely assembled with a depth of textures that keeps the sound as fresh as it's going to be for the duration (or at least as much of the duration as I was able to hear). - wonderfulwoodenreasons.homestead.com
