Nothing Pierre has recorded is closer to his heart than this, Mapleshade's first collaboration with Clifford Jordan, recorded live at a posh jazz club in Baltimore. Fresh off the New York circuit, Clifford’s quartet was locked-in, relaxed, and happily inspired by a house full of enthusiastic fans. Everyone from
JazzTimes to Stereophile has heralded this as one of Clifford’s very best, most appealing recordings. Stereophile called the CD, “Simply one of the most natural-sounding jazz discs I have heard.” The crystal clear ambience (a squeak of the hi-hat, the clink of a wine glass, the audience’s chuckles of delight) make this CD a pristine vignette of jazz as it was meant to be heard: live.
