O’s Notes: Canadian flautist Tom Keenlyside leads a quartet with Miles Black (p), Miles Hill (b) and Bernie Aria (d). Fortune Teller was recorded live resulting in strong interaction between the musicians. The rhythm section is tight with poignant dynamics that are softened by Keenlyside’s melodies. Highlights are “The Summer Knows”, “Cuttin’ Time”, the bouncy “Pratfall”, “The Burninator” and the title track.
