Dave Holland Trio: Dave Holland (bass); Steve Coleman (saxophone); Jack DeJohnette (drums). Recorded at Power Station, New York, New York in March 1988. Personnel: Dave Holland (double bass); Steve Coleman (alto saxophone); Jack DeJohnette (drums). Recording information: Power Station, New York (03/1988). Photographer: Richard Laird. TRIPLICATE is a trio set matching bassist Dave Holland with drummer Jack DeJohnette and alto saxophonist Steve Coleman. All three players work will within the structure of a skeletal ensemble such as this. DeJohnette in particular is a rock solid base, but also engages in flights of fancy with Coleman. Meanwhile Holland himself is here framed in gloriously rich and woody depth by the two other players (a hallmark of ECM is their sterling clarity and resonance). The four Holland originals include his intoxicating "Four Winds" which first appeared on his masterpiece CONFERENCE OF THE BIRDS. There's also an arrangement of a traditional African melody, a composition by each of the two other players, and covers by Charlie Parker and Duke Ellington. DeJohnette's "Blue" manages the magical feat of being both wistful and propulsive.
