One of today’s finest young jazz drummers, Joe Farnsworth has been supporting venerable leaders, creating tight and steady rhythm for the group. Now, it is time for him to forge the groove for himself. Many of his long recording/performing colleagues have joined him in the studio to share these special moments. Both pianists Harold Mabern and David Hazeltine have composed brand new tunes for this session. Also, one of the great melody-makers, Benny Golson, has brought his composition, “And So, I Love Again,” which was composed in 1985 but never recorded. Golson and the great trombonist Curtis Fuller team up on “Five Spot After Dark.” If you have a taste for straight-ahead jazz, this album is a can’t-miss. Recorded by David Baker.
