Album Notes & Community Reviews

Relocating to Copenhagen like many American jazz musicians of the era, pianist Duke Jordan recorded this masterful, deeply melodic trio date for the SteepleChase label. Backed by Niels-Henning 脴rsted Pedersen and Ed Thigpen, Jordan delivers a sophisticated, lyrical set of bebop and cool jazz originals, notably the classic 'No Problem'.
