Tim Miller's "Trio Vol. 2" reviewed at All About Jazz

All About Jazz has a great review up of Tim Miller's new album Trio Volume 2. I'm really digging this CD lately. It's only March, but so far this is one of my favorite albums of the year.

All About Jazz review: Tim Miller - Trio Volume 2

Current listening

Here's a quick rundown of what I've been listening to lately.

NEW STUFF

Tim Miller - Trio 2

Awesome Holdsworthian jazz. Great writing. I love Miller's acoustic/electric tones.

Whoopgnash - Lack Of Education

Also Holdsworthian, but far more "out there" than Miller. Great guitar work by John Erickson.

Paul Gilbert - Silence Followed by a Deafening Roar

Gilbert's follow-up to Get Out Of My Yard. Great tones and writing.
 

OLD STUFF

Mathieson, Laboriel, Colaiuta, Landau - Live at The Baked Potato

I actually prefer the follow-up, Another Night At The Baked Potato, but this one is growing on me. Landau is awesome as usual.

Larry Carlton with Robben Ford - Live In Tokyo

Saw these guys in Chicago recently; great show. As a result I've been revisiting this disc. Well worth picking up.
