O’s Notes: Warren (p) leads this trio playing with bassist Jay Anderson and Peter Erskine on drums. Each of them makes a notable contribution. The music is a relaxed soft bop, nine songs, and mainly classics. The signature is the opener, “Amelia’s Song”, dedicated to his paternal grandmother. It defines the feel of the set, mixed tempos but always composed.
