Ribot, Marc / Henry Grimes / Chad Taylor - Live At The Village Vanguard CD
SKU
28-PIRC53.2
Totally SMOKIN' electric jazz trio set from this band of equals. Grimes and Chad sound great together and this is one of the best things I have heard out of Ribot. Includes two late period Coltrane tracks (Sun Ship & Dearly Beloved), two by Ayler (Bells & The Wizard) and two standards, this is a fine, exciting set.
"A charged and tingly curiosity preceded the guitarist Marc Ribot s opening set at the Village Vanguard ... still a coveted milestone for almost any jazz musician."-The New York Times
"Live at the Village Vanguard captures guitarist Marc Ribot in an electrifying set with his trio, featuring bassist Henry Grimes and drummer Chad Taylor.
Not only was it Ribot s debut as a leader at the iconic venue, the occasion also marked the first appearance by Grimes since 1966 right before his mysterious 35-year disappearance from the
scene when he played on the landmark album Albert Ayler In Greenwich Village. Grimes subsequent re-emergence on the jazz scene in 2003 with all of his performing faculties intact is testament to the power of music and the human spirit."
