The second of pianist James Williams' three Magical Trio releases features him interacting with bassist Ray Brown and drummer Elvin Jones on trio renditions of three of his originals (including "A Portrait of Elvin") plus four fresh standards. The spontaneous results are quite stimulating and the matchup between these masterful musicians (who do not play together very often) on the straightahead set is quite successful. ~ Scott Yanow 

Personnel:  James Williams – piano;  Ray Brown – bass;  Elvin Jones - drums

  1. Thank you so much Giullia also for your speed!
    The second chapter of a truly magical trio with two real jazz icons as Ray Brown and Elvin Jones and an extraordinary pianist who unfortunately left us too young
