O’s Notes: This is Jazz Standards Vol. 2 of a four-volume set. The first two volumes were made twenty years ago and just released. They feature guitarist Henry Robinett and his quartet including Joe Gilman (p), Chris Symer (b) and Michael Stephens (d). And just like the first act, Henry mixes it up with burners like “How Am I To Know” and ballads like “I Thought About You.” The band is speaking to each other, listening and sharing the good word with us over a dozen fresh takes with no losers! Bring on Vol. 3.
