Description
This release from New Yorks's venerable veteran bassist Ron McClure is a case of "Lost and Found". The recording was made 32 years ago at Manhattan's upper Eastside nightclub Danshaku (Baron in Japanese). McClure was hired to play a gig and formed a trio with pianist Don Friedman (1925-2016) and guitarist Vic Juris (1953-2019). The gig was privately recorded but the tape was lost. Long story short, the missing tape was found last year in a NY apartment and its sound has been restored meticulously for us to experience a fabulous night of NY jazz scene three decades ago.
"McClure is recognised for inventive improvising, creative compositions in a wide variety of settings and immaculate tone." - Ken Dryden, The New York City Jazz Record on 'Night Quest' (SCCD31935)
