John Esposito Trio
Blues For Outlaw Hearts

“...showcases Esposito's own fluid playing…The epic "Sunlight" unleashes an Ahmad Jamal-like exuberance, beams of notes arcing through a late afternoon.”      Chronogram

 

“On a set of all Esposito originals, the trio plays like an irresistible force, its implacable nature due to, by turns, the power of the expositions and the breathtaking beauty of the collective musicianship. Drummer Peter O'brien and bassist Ira Coleman accompany Esposito with an assurance bordering on brashness…..The trio displays a collective spirit and fluid majesty….

….this cohesive set has a freshness and hopped-up vibrancy that is irresistible.”
