Review: The latest disc from pianist presents him at the head of his own quartet in a program of standards and blues, recorded live at the Village Vanguard. Iverson’s quartet features as its prime melodic voice the veteran Tom Harrell, who was voted Trumpeter of the Year in 2018 by the U.S. Jazz Journalists Association. This disc courses with an effervescent swing, thanks to the top-flight rhythm team.
