O’s Notes: Second Opinion“revisits Erskine’s alter ego groove of“Dr. Um (4/3) that surfaced Erskine’s contemporary side. John Beasley (keyboards) and Bob Sheppard (sax) return with Benjamin Shepherd replacing Janek Grizdala on bass. Six of the nine selections are originals by Beasley, Sheppard and Erskine.““They pick up where they left off delivering an even better, contemporary session. Among the best tracks are the heavily syncopated “Solar Steps”, “Eleven, Eleven”, “Hipnotherapy” and their take on “Willow Weep For Me”.
