Description

2025 repress of the Neil Cowley Trio's 2010 album 'Radio Silence'.
Neil Cowley Trio's elegant and explosive third album 'Radio Silence', the bands most complete statement to date, explores uncharted extremities of the acoustic piano trio. Cowley's music, a powerful examination of the possibilities of the acoustic piano trio draws equally on classical, trance, rock and jazz, and led MOJOto hail the bands 2008's 'Loud louder Stop' as a "Modern Classic", and list it in their '50 Best Albums' of that year. 'Radio Silence' is the sound of a band fully comfortable in their unique sonic skin. It is the record that Cowley has been working towards, seizing the magical empathy of a unit, who, with thousands of hours under their belt have learnt to breathe and listen as one. Described as music for the "heart and feet", 'Radio Silence', moves effortlessly between moments of heart-stopping beauty, rip-roaring rock riffs and Chaplinesque ditties, that reminds us that for all his many influences.
Press Quotes:
"An outstanding collection of original and varied pieces." - ***** All About Jazz
"The leader's playing, informed by classical technique and a keen pop sensibility, is as dazzling as ever and he receives excellent support from his two dependable colleagues." - **** The Jazz Mann
"The tantalising, 'A French Lesson' sounds like it's soundtracking the twists and turns of a Buster Keaton silent movie, while the CD's never short of Cowley's penchant for playful melodies as highlighted by the jittery alt rock-meets-ragtime knees-up of 'Gerald' and the boogie-woogie-ish 'Hug The Greyhound'." - Jazzwise
