John Abercrombie



This one is different.
Guitar, drum, bass and violin. I usually tend to dislike jazz with violin (of course there's Stephane Grappelli with Django Reinhard) flute (exception: Eric Dolphy) or other crossovers, but, this time, Mark Feldman did it extremely well.
This is an album with rare beauty, it is involving, somehow cozy (Hm... cozy?) and, well, they do go real crazy some times, watch out with the volume.
Well,

How funny you say this. I absolutely can't stand violin or flute in jazz, but Feldman is the exception indeed.

And this quartet is so good, and so is Feldman's own quartet.
