Josh Berman / Aram Shelton / Weasel Walter: Last Distractions

by Mark Corroto
Last Distractions is a highly ambitious project, undertaken with just two horns and a drummer--three horns, actually, as reedist Aram Shelton plays two different ones. This trio of Shelton, cornetist Josh Berman and drummer Weasel Walter has set its sights on a determined and inspiring set of improvised music. The Chicago jazz scene is the inspiration ...
Ton Trio: The Way
