Doesn't matter if it's with Ray Brown or Niles. Both were insanely great players. |

| | The Aristocrats | | Join Date: May 2005 Location: NYC; Portland, OR | | IMO, one of the most important "jazz" trios today (though theyre a lot more progressive than some might feel comfortable with calling jazz) is Soulive. Ive seen them a bunch of times (on a cruise around NYC. Best party ever), and I think that if you have good speakers, their best work can be heard here.
If you have very good speakers/headphones, I definitely think its worth it to download the VBR version.
Anyways, its tight stuff. (no bass player, but the keyboardist's left hand is awesome)

How about Oscar Peterson with Ray Brown and NHOP - two great bassists in one trio!?

Like on the album "Talking" with Kenny Barron and Ben Riley - some amazing bass playing!
Any others?
