George Mraz, Al Foster and Joe Henderson -- this really was one of the best trios in jazz at this time. I luckily got to see them on occasion and the playing was at such a consistent high level. This also has the welcome presence of Bheki Mseleku, the South African pianist who fits right in.

@RodneyBrown1979 you are so right - even though I've listened to joe for awhile- I've just recently realized, thanks to youtube, how awesome and so underrated this man is - Joe is now in my top five horn players of all time
-
Anyone else not realize it was only Al & Joe playing until the rest of the band came in?
-
WOW George Mraz has low action... his strings are pretty much touching the fingerboard.
-
@Aaronlongville I think that was used as a cue for the band to come in.



Joe is one of if not the most under appreciated tenor players in history. This man swings like no other.

Joe Henderson is just plain cool. It's sort of like you can hear the twinkle in his eye when he plays. I'd have a hard time finding anyone in history who's aged better.
