Spinnin’ is my fifth album as a leader, the first within the jazz piano trio idiom. For this recording, I called a drummer with whom I played quite a bit during my past years in NY – currently with tenor Joe Lovano – the young Otis Brown III, and the bass player everybody digs (Dianne Reeves, Joshua Redman, Charles Lloyd...), Reuben Rogers.
The session took place in a Soho studio, during two evenings of November 2004. As for my previous album Like A Tree In The City, engineer Katsuhiko Naito took great care of the recording, mixing and mastering. There are no edits in this album.
The repertoire consist on six originals ; five new compositions and a new version of South Ferry, originally featured in the album Versatile. We also recorded a powerful rubato ballad by tenor Branford Marsalis (A Thousand Autumns), another gorgeous one by father Elis Marsalis (When We First Met), a tune by the great Mark Turner (Barcelona) and a tribute to the late French singer Claude Nougaro (Toulouse).
