the dred scott trio/going nowhere

$15.00

this is my last trio recording. it's from 2012. ben rubin, bass. tony mason, drums. i wrote all the tunes but one and took the cover photo.

'This longtime working band, led by the sly pianist- raconteur Dred Scott, recently released “Going Nowhere” (Ropeadope), a good showcase for its puckish but aggressive take on postbop aerodynamics.' ny times
