With the May 12 issue of Jazz In The Garden (Heads Up), Stanley Clarke will see the first release of an acoustic trio album that he has led.
I had never done an acoustic bass record, ever. There’s a long list of people on whose records I’ve played acoustic bass--Art Blakey, Dexter Gordon, Stan Getz, Joe Henderson and many others--but I’d never done an acoustic jazz trio record of my own. So I wanted to record one that would just feature the piano and the acoustic bass in a way that you could really hear the bass.
Stanley Clark
For this album, Clarke convened a trio with pianist Hiromi Uehara and drummer Lenny White.
