O’s Notes: Terri joins forces with a strong team including Herbie Hancock (p), guitarist Paul Bollenback and Wallace Roney (t). They perform under the spell of the title, Jazz Is A Spirit, entering new space while reflecting on the past. You’ve heard Carrington (d) before, either alone or as a part of bands for Jarreau, Sandborn, Getz, Peterson, Kirk and Reeves. Prior work suggests that she plays across the jazz ruler. She draws on all elements for this session as well. Terri anchors the rhythm section and occasionally brings her drums out front. When she does, take note, she has a lot to say!
