Spike Wilner Trio: Plays Monk & Ellington
by Pierre Giroux
There have probably not been two more disparate individuals in jazz than the pianists Duke Ellington and Thelonious Monk.

by Jack Bowers

Bassist Alexander Claffy's quintet dashes from the starting gate on Good Spirits with a fiery reading of McCoy Tyner's propulsive “Inner Glimpse," setting the tone for a bright and animated session whose spirit is undeniably good.
