Pamela Hines Trio - 3.2.1. (2012)

Jazz pianist/composer Pamela Hines continues her establishment in the American jazz scene with her latest release, "3.2.1." As a composer, she has written critically acclaimed jazz works for vocalists and edgy instrumentals for trios, quartets and quintets. On her new project, she reveals intuitive brilliance on tunes such as "34 Skidoo" and "Spring Can Really Hang You Up the Most." Yoron Israel is on drums, Dave Clark, bass, and their mastery is apparent from the opening track. Hines begins the set with trio tunes, pops in a few duos with Clark, then ends nicely with a solo interpretation of "I Guess I'll Hang My Tears Out to Dry."
