Sam First, Los Angeles
With over 30 years of history, this trio has been recognized for charting new ground, with its synergistic playing, and thoughtful music. They have over a dozen recordings that display their distinctive sound, whether exploring the depths of jazz standards, or playing their own compositions. Peter Bernstein (guitar), Larry Goldings (Hammond B-3 Organ), Bill Stewart (drums) “The trio of Larry Goldings, Peter Bernstein, and Bill Stewart is the best organ trio of the last decade.” – The New York Times “Goldings belongs to that elite and small group of ‘great piano players” – Pat Metheny “Peter Bernstein is the most impressive guitarist I’ve heard. He plays the best of them all for swing, logic, feel and taste, and has paid attention to the past as well as the future.” – Jim Hall “An authentic organ trio with all the size and scope of Mount Everest, and twice the cool” – Jazz Times “[Bill Stewart’s] true speciality is making a good band sound inexplicably better” – The New York Times
