"Looking Back", a new trio album from saxophonist Mike Murley, continues in the tradition of his two Juno award winning recordings featuring bassist Steve Wallace and guitarist Ed Bickert. Reg Schwager has replaced the now retired Bickert and brings his own subtle yet potent style to the music without radically changing the sound of the group. Always swinging and lyrical, this is mainstream chamber jazz at its best. There is a $15 cover.
