The Steve Howe Trio • New Frontier

Celebrated Rock guitarist performs Jazz.

Not a shock at all really, nor can I say that I am surprised at the quality of the material. Some might say it’s routine, but I find the nature of the performances, and in most cases here the paring down to simplest of arrangements, is great. You can hear from this how (no pun) Steve and his music contribute to the final sound in the progressive rock environment.

The trio combines Steve Howe’s guitars with Dylan Howe on drums and Ross Stanley on keyboards. This, I understand, is their second album following on from 2008’s The Haunted Melody. I have always had a fondness for jazz since my introduction to it in my mid-twenties, and for someone looking for a broad-spectrum introduction, I would happily recommend this. With elements of tradition as well as some interesting contemporary takes, there is some great music here.

///////

The Steve Howe Trio es un proyecto en clave de jazz del guitarrista de Yes, Steve Howe, en el que se rinden homenaje a iconos del género como Kenny Burrell y Miles Davis.

Steve cuenta con su hijo Dylan como batería y con el organista Ross Stanley. El 27 de septiembre llega New Frontier (a través de Esoteric Antenna) y por primera vez con material original (no tributos). En tres de las piezas ha colaborado el mítico batería Bill Bruford, que desde hace años se había retirado de la música.
