Every generation or so, a rhythm section comes along and changes the game. Think of Count Basie's "All-American Rhythm Section" with Freddie Green, Walter Page and Jo Jones, or Herbie Hancock, Ron Carter and Tony Williams from Miles Davis' second great quintet. It's up to history to render the verdict about pianist Lex Korten, bassist Ben Tiberio and drummer Miguel Marcel Russell. Still, given the fire, precision and reflexes they flash behind saxophonist Nicola Caminiti (no slouch himself) on Vivid Tales of a Blurry Self-Portrait (self released, 2024), you wouldn't want to bet against them.
