Brief reviews of select releases
Lynne Arriale Trio, "Live" (Motema, disc plus DVD). She's certainly beautiful enough. Her left hand, though, can be as bombastic as McCoy Tyner's - but without the ecstatic dancing. Nor will you catch her suffering from too much Bill Evans worship or lyric introversion. Don't give up on her too easily, though. Anyone smart enough to play Abdullah Ibrahim's "Mountain of the Night" and to make such a creative abstraction out of Monk's "Bemsha Swing" deserves your attention. - Jeff Simon
