Barry Altschul Quartet - Irina
) | Label: Soul Note Catalog: 121065-1 Format: VINYL BARRY ALTSCHUL QUARTETDrummer Barry Altschul leads a particularly interesting quartet on this date (reissued on CD) that also includes trumpeter Enrico Rava, John Surman on baritone and soprano, and bassist Mark Helias. The music finds the pianoless group sounding halfway between the Gerry Mulligan/Chet Baker Quartet and the late-'50s Ornette Coleman/Don Cherry group. This is a notable and highly recommended release.  Price: $29.98 |
