Hi,
We have a wonderful new release available on the Naim Label, Crazy World by the Laurence Hobgood Trio (Naim CD084)
The Laurence Hobgood Trio are Laurence on piano, Rob Amster on bass and Frank Parker on drums and percussion. You may be aware of Laurence from previous recordings we have made with him; two "Union" albums - both highly acclaimed, and a solo disc.
You may also have heard of this trio in the context of US jazz vocalist Kurt Elling. They have accompanied Kurt for the past eight years; both in concert and in the studio. Crazy World is the first album that these impeccable musicians have recorded as a trio.
The ten tracks on the album are a mixture of Laurence’s original compositions and his own arrangements, with one track by Rob Amster.
Six times Grammy nominee Kurt Elling makes a guest appearance to provide delicate vocal inspiration on two tracks recorded exclusively for this album.
Crazy World is another addition to the label’s True Stereo catalogue. It was recorded by Ken Christianson direct to two track Nagra tape machine.
You can listen to a track from the album here:
listen to "revival"
