Review: Downbeat Jazz Poll winner Piket joins two stellar players from LA. The result is an interesting blend of West Coast "cool" and sophisticated New York mainstream that pleases the ear and moves things along at a lively clip. Larry Koonse guests on guitar on tracks 3 & 8
If You Like: Bill Evans, Scott LeFaro, Art Blakey
