Buck Hill: Relax
by Dan McClenaghan
Relax has an old-school feeling, like a Blue Note album from the sixties. It's a straight-ahead sound, with Buck Hill's brawny, relaxed tenor saxophone in the embrace of a fine organ trio. I compare it to an “album" in part because there's a two-sided feeling to the eight songs. “Side one" opens with a with the ...

At times mesmerizing and at times refreshingly pure, the session relies on a powerful, ...
