This album is most notable for the interplay between veteran guitarist Tal Farlow and pianist Tommy Flanagan. With bassist Gary Mazzaroppi completing the trio, the musicians perform Tal's "Blue Art, Too" (based on a blues), plus seven superior standards, including "Nuages," "If I Were a Bell" and "St. Thomas." In general, the music is on the relaxed side but there is plenty of inner heat to be felt on the fine set. ~ Scott Yanow http://www.allmusic.com/album/chromatic-palette-mw0000611946

Personnel: Tal Farlow (guitar); Tommy Flanagan (piano); Gary Mazzaroppi (bass).

  4. TYVM! A fantastic guitarist. He was once asked why he had disappeared from the scene for twenty years. He answered: "the bad atmosphere". Most jazz or flamenco musicians have ended up like that: alcoholics or drug addicts. On the one hand, their life is easy, because they are always partying. On the other hand, their life is difficult, because they are always partying. Everybody wants a normal life, but you don't have a normal life if you always have to entertain others and look eternally cheerful. There is a correlation between the short lives of Charlie Parker or John Coltrane and that of Camarón de la Isla. His triumph was his tragedy.
