Product Information

The virtuosic Cuban pianist Gonzalo Rubalcaba's first recording to be issued in the U. S. is still one of his best. With strong accompaniment from bassist Charlie Haden and drummer Jack DeJohnette, Rubalcaba is always in exciting form throughout these performances. Highlights include a great sounding "Besame Mucho," "Giant Steps," Ornette Coleman's beautiful "The Blessing," and an unusual treatment given to Bill Evans' "Blue in Green."

Personnel Include: Gonzalo Rubalcaba (piano) Charlie Haden (bass) Jack DeJohnette (drums)
