专辑简介

Portland, Oregon based trumpeter Farnell Newton and pianist Marcus Reynolds are beginning to make their mark on contemporary jazz with fresh, original compositions and an updated version of the classic 1960's Blue Note era sound. 28-year-old Farnell Newton (nephew of famed Cecil Taylor/Albert Ayler drummer Sunny Murray) and 29-year-old Reynolds, a young agile pianist with a rich harmonic sensibility, lead a quintet that presents unique treatments of the standard jazz repertoire along with forays into the Pan-American jazz tradition.
