Our Take

Tommy Flanagan Trio is back at it again with not one, not two, but FOUR classic albums bundled into one incredible package. The trio, consisting of Flanagan on piano, George Mraz on bass, and Kenny Washington on drums, showcases their unparalleled chemistry and musicianship throughout this collection.

First up, we have "Jazz Poet," where Flanagan's smooth, lyrical piano playing takes center stage. With tracks like "Besame Mucho" and "U.M.M.G.," this album is a delightful blend of classic jazz standards and Flanagan's unique interpretations.

Next, we dive into "The Master Trio," featuring Flanagan's inventive compositions alongside timeless pieces like "I Love You" and "Confirmation." Mraz's pulsating bass lines and Washington's dynamic drumming add depth and excitement to each track.

Moving on to "Let's Play the Music of Thad Jones," the trio pays homage to the iconic jazz composer with soulful renditions of his work. The trio's improvisational skills are on full display here, with Flanagan leading the charge with his intricate, melodic solos.

And finally, we have "Confirmation," a compilation of live recordings that capture the trio's electrifying energy and passion for jazz. From the swinging rhythms of "Well, You Needn't" to the tender balladry of "My One and Only Love," this album is a testament to the trio's ability to captivate audiences with their dynamic performances.

Overall, Tommy Flanagan Trio's Four Classic Albums is a must-have for jazz enthusiasts and newcomers alike. With their effortless virtuosity and infectious camaraderie, this collection is a true testament to the trio's enduring legacy in the world of jazz.
