Evidence

by Mark Ladley Trio, Mark Ladley

Overview

As with his previous Altenburgh CD, Strictly Business, Evidence features drummer Mark Ladley performing half of the program in a trio with the excellent (if underrated) tenor saxophonist John Greiner and organist Mel Rhyne; "Drop Me Off in Harlem" and Thelonious Monk's "Evidence" are most memorable. In addition, there is a Ladley-Rhyne duet on Irving Berlin's "Remember," two songs played by Ladley with pianist Laura Caviani and bassist David Dunn, and one number ("I'll Remember April") that has Rhyne switching to piano and jamming with a quartet also including Ladley, Greiner, and bassist Charlie Hoats. No matter what the instrumental combination, the music swings and these Midwest musicians show that they can hold their own with their New York and Los Angeles counterparts. ~ Scott Yanow
