Our Take

The latest offering from the Jim Black Trio, "Reckonin", is a musical journey like no other. Each track on this album takes the listener on a rollercoaster of emotions, from toe-tapping excitement to introspective contemplation.

Black's drumming is like a thunderstorm, powerful and commanding, yet with moments of delicate subtlety that showcase his masterful skill. His bandmates, pianist Elias Stemeseder and bassist Thomas Morgan, provide the perfect backdrop for Black's virtuosic drumming, creating a seamless blend of sound that is both complex and captivating.

Tracks like "Sonic Boom" and "Rhythm Roulette" are a testament to the Trio's ability to push boundaries and defy genre conventions. They seamlessly incorporate elements of jazz, rock, and electronica to create a sound that is uniquely their own.

But it's not all serious business with the Jim Black Trio. "Reckonin" also features tracks like "Funky Town" and "Disco Inferno" that will have you grooving in your seat and itching to hit the dance floor.

Overall, "Reckonin" is a triumph for the Jim Black Trio. It showcases their incredible talent and creativity, and cements their status as one of the most innovative and exciting bands in the jazz world today. So grab your headphones, press play, and prepare to be blown away.
