  • Description

    Pianist Benny Green's first trio recording in over 10 years is a testament to his great talent. A remarkable set of jazz piano performances in the classic trio setting. Phenomenal artistry by all.

    'Source' is Benny Green's 18th album as a leader and sees him supported by one of the top rhythm sections in jazz today, in the form of bassist Peter Washington and drummer Kenny Washington. With the exception of "Born to Be Blue", which was written by the vocalist Mel Torme, the tunes in this program were penned by some of Benny's favourite jazz instrumentalists. Green has recorded for labels such as Blue Note, Criss Cross and Telarc and has played and recorded with jazz greats, including Betty Carter, Art Blakey, Freddie Hubbard, Bobby Watson, Milt Jackson, Diana Krall and Ray Brown.

    Personnel: Benny Green (piano), Peter Washington (bass), Kenny Washington (drums)
