Many of which are with Frank Kimbrough on piano, all of which sound really great. Check'em out http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/ronbrendle |
I have to give props to this disc as well. Another great one is "Autumn", his duo disc with Frank. Ron is an acquaintance of mine (I'm in Asheville) and we chat whenever he comes to the Asheville Jazz Composers Forum to play. Great guy, phenomenal playing. Heard him last month at the forum as well, playing in Bill Gerhardt's double quartet and with John Alexander and Chris Garges.
BTW, if anyone is reading this that's in the area, the Asheville JCF is having this month's concert tomorrow night at 8pm at the Cafe on the Square in downtown Asheville. My group, the Chronology Trio, is being featured, along with Jon Thornton, Bill Gerhardt, Mike Holstein, and Sonny Thorton. All original compositions by myself, Victor Walker (my guitarist), and Jon.
