BRIAN CHARETTE/Square One: Been jonesing for some hard hitting jazz organ trio work that swings and doesn’t miss? This is the stuff where you can hear Larry Young as well as Jimmy Smith vibing in the background.

Posi-Tone Records would seem to have the market cornered on both saxophonists and organists with Jared Gold at the top of the list on the latter.
The organ trio format gets a kick in the ass with the addition of a three person horn section and Gold’s best compositions thus far. Joining Jared we have improvisational guitar wizard in Dave Stryker and rock steady Sylvia Cu ...Read More
