Remembering Russell Malone: Black Butterfly
ByBut he was much more than a guitar for hire or band member. Beginning with his eponymous debut in 1992, Malone would record fifteen albums as a leader. The title track from Black Butterfly (Columbia, 1993), a typically elegant Duke Ellington composition, shows Malone off at his laid-back and bluesy best. Paul Keller is on bass, Peter Siers on drums and Gary Motley on piano.
