Where The Lights Fall

(2-CD set) One of the most prolific and influential jazz bassists over the past four decades, David Friesen presents here his latest touring project, the Circle 3 Trio. This two-disc package captures his dynamic group in live performances from Tempe, AZ and Portland, OR, and from a studio session in Osnabruck, Germany. Friesen is joined by pianist Greg Goebel, drummer Charlie Doggett, and on several tracks from their Tempe performance, guitarist Larry Koonse. "Everything the trio plays is colored with a pronounced individuality. The harmonic depth, intense rhythm and subtle interaction they employ mesmerizes an audience." - Downbeat.
