Eric Siereveld's Organic Quintet: Sweet William
 
								
									by Jack Bowers
									
										
																			
								
On their second recording together, trumpeter Eric Siereveld and his New York-based Organic Quintet are more a sextet most of the way, as guest trombonist Steve Davis lends a master hand (two, actually) on six of the album's eight numbers. The term organic" springs from the fact that one of the ensemble's anchors ...
