O’s Notes: Pianist Keith Davis leads a trio with bassist Rob Brendle and Justin Watt on drums. Davis composed all nine selections, a bouncy groovin’ collection. They open with “Lieb”, an upbeat tune that gives each musician a chance to shine. From there the pace varies but the energy remains courtesy of the lively interactive work by Watt. Our favorites are “Elis”, “Taiji Camp” and “Tadkiman”. Though Davis is a musician with over 30 years experiences this is the recording debut for his trio, a sound effort!
