USA: Jeff Fuller & Friends – Round & Round (2020)


Jeff Fuller | Round & Round

On their 4th CD, Jeff Fuller & Friends again provide thoughtful and engaging original jazz compositions in an intimate piano trio setting. "Round & Round" features Fuller's virtuosic bass playing, pianist Darren Litzie's inventive improvisations, and drummer Ben Bilello's great soloing and accompaniment. Beautifully recorded by Norman Johnson, the trio explores new territory on such compositions as "Round & Round," "Rest, Dear," "Sambeleza, and the classically oriented "Never So Long," which features Fuller's bowed upright bass. This is music made for listening, so settle back and enjoy the journey!
