Personnel: Steve Lacy (soprano saxophone); Irene Aebi (vocals); Jean-Jacques Avenel (kora, acoustic bass); John Betsch (drums). Audio Mixer: Herve le Guil. Liner Note Author: Steve Lacy . Recording information: Gimmick Studio, Yerres, France (03/28/1996-03/29/1996). Editor: Herve le Guil. Photographer: Christian Ducasse. This CD features the great soprano saxophonist in a trio (instead of his usual sextet), interacting with bassist Jean-Jacques Avenel and drummer John Betsch; Irene Aebi has two brief vocal appearances. Lacy performs seven of his better originals (including "The Bath" and "The Hoot") plus a song by Avenel and two Thelonious Monk tunes ("Bye-Ya" and "Trinkle Tinkle"). Lacy, who excels in all settings, sounds perfectly at home in this sparse trio. Avenel adds a bit of variety by switching to his eerie-sounding kora on "Pi-Pande." A recommended set of adventurous yet thoughtful music. ~ Scott Yanow
