Adorned with Marcus Uzilevsky's Linear Landscapes

but in hindsight

the record amounts to 'Coltrane Plays Ellington' (plus one Coltrane original) because the tenor man is the whole show — and what a show it is

山本剛トリオ Tsuyoshi Yamamoto Trio - Midnight Sun (Three Blind Mice 復刻シリーズ) Artist_Mayu Nakazawa Ellie RowsellRecorded in Tokyo in June 1978 after his stay in the United States, Midnight Sun captures the Tsuyoshi Yamamoto Trio in a format typical of the Three Blind Mice aesthetic: full, dynamic sound and natural breathing of the playing. Between standards (Autumn Leaves, Love Is Here To Stay) and more personal themes, Yamamoto favours melodic narration, with a deep left hand and a very singing touch.
