Everyone listens. No one overplays or goes for 'house.' The ambiance is one of concentrated excellence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen eminent jazz practitioners with shared histories convene in the studio without rehearsal or preparatory gigs, a perfunctory, by-the-numbers session is often the outcome. That is decidedly not the case on \u003ci\u003eSolid Jackson\u003c\/i\u003e, whose personnel, four of whom participated on the well-wrought day-after-Christmas of 1994 Criss Cross album titled \u003ci\u003eConsenting Adults\u003c\/i\u003e, reside in any hardcore jazz connoisseur's 'top-five.'\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAll in all, the session is, as the cliche goes, 'all killer, no filler,' performed at a level that might have provoked Charlie Haden to respond with a hearty 'Solid Jackson.' 'There was a natural blend,' Bernstein says. 'We all go way back, and everyone was very comfortable being around each other. One thing I like about making a record is that you're able to spend a day with people you've been meaning to hang out with for a long time. It's not just a party. You're working, too. But that's how we interact socially - by playing music. I was amazed. It's 30 years after we did the first one, but everyone is relatively intact. It's really a miracle. We're all still here; we get to play together again.'\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrad Mehldau: piano\u003cbr\u003eMark Turner: tenor saxophone\u003cbr\u003ePeter Bernstein: guitar\u003cbr\u003eLarry Grenadier: bass\u003cbr\u003eBill Stewart: drums\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSolid Jackson\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Things That Fall Away\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAngola\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSoft Impression\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e1946\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaury's Grey Wig\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDitty For Dewey\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOde To Angela\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54475475353985,"sku":"2482447","price":15.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/8712474142323.jpg?v=1752521824","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/2482447","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
