Our Take

In a world where jazz can sometimes feel stuffy and inaccessible, Chick Corea, Christian McBride, and Brian Blade are here to remind us that it can also be exuberant, exciting, and dare I say, cool. Their latest offering, Trilogy 2, is a masterclass in musical chemistry, with each member of the trio bringing their A-game to the table.

From the first notes of the opening track, it's clear that these three virtuosos are in perfect sync, effortlessly weaving in and out of each other's melodies with a sense of playfulness and joy that is infectious. Corea's piano playing is nothing short of breathtaking, McBride's bass lines are funky and soulful, and Blade's drumming holds everything together with an understated brilliance.

The album is a mix of original compositions and covers, with each track offering something new and unexpected. Highlights include a vibrant reimagining of Thelonious Monk's "Rhythm-a-ning" and a hauntingly beautiful take on Steve Swallow's "Eiderdown." But it's the trio's chemistry that really steals the show, with each member knowing exactly when to step back and let the others shine.

Trilogy 2 is a joyful celebration of the power of collaboration and the sheer joy of making music. It's an album that will have you tapping your feet, nodding your head, and maybe even getting up to dance. So go ahead, put it on, and let Chick Corea, Christian McBride, and Brian Blade take you on a musical journey you won't soon forget. Trust me, you'll be glad you did.
