Fortunately, this work clearly captures the performance of that period with the highest quality sound! Allen’s piano, which has digested every jazz style from traditional to avant-garde, and the tense and sophisticated interplay between the three masters, Hayden and Motian, make “In the Year of the Dragon” stand out. The fast-paced feel of Bud Powell’s “Oblivion,” Monk’s “Round Midnight” with its deep emotion, and Nichols’ “Shuffle,” in which Allen’s piano plays an active role, reminiscent of Harvey Nichols’ mysterious touch.・Montgomery”, Hayden’s melancholy masterpiece “First Song”, the dreamy and beautiful melodies, Motian and Allen’s original original numbers, this is a superb live performance where you can enjoy great performances that evoke deep emotions. !
