Parker: (bass, gralle, jogibaba, orchestra bells, vocals); Walter Perkins: (trap drums), vocals; Perry Robinson (clarinet, ocarina). Two CD set, studio & live, of a new Parker-led trio featuring the authentically legendary Perkins & Robinson. The terrifically resourceful Walter Perkins has worked in nearly every context in post-war jazz. From the chamber settings of the Art Farmer/Jim Hall Quartet to the more insistently swinging requirements of Roland Kirk, Sonny Rollins, & the MJT, Walter Perkins has done it all. & for those of you who agree that far too little of Perry Robinson's highly colorful playing exists on record after his totally classic 1962 Savoy album (Funk Dumpling) & ESP 1026 (Henry Grimes: The Call), you're suffering has just been eased. The man is still the last word for all the clarinet's possibilities in creative music." Parker: "The clarinet trio, we're going almost anywhere, but it's more rooted in the blues & folk, extending from the history of jazz. It swings, it sings and, you know, it stings. We don't know where it will go from night to night, but the basis of it is the blues."
