A pleasure to listen to for me, and apparently, the audience. I especially like the piano solo, although it's all brilliant work. Love the contrast of the muted strings and then the occasion contrast of brief chromatic flights. Lots of repetition, but with relief in the right places. Genius, I'd call it. Unsurprising as he's the son of John Clayton, one of the great bass players or our time.
One of the comments on a different post of this was, "I don't even listen to jazz and this is the dopest **** I've ever heard.”
As it happens I played this to two people a few days ago, neither of whom are jazz fans, and they both loved it. It's worth considering why.
Yes, it's accessible, but it's also joyous, uplifting and soulful.
