Yamamoto’s new album, A Shade Of Blue, undoubtedly reflects his love of the piano trio, a group configuration that in jazz history began in the 1940s with Nat King Cole and then was developed in the 50s by innovators like Oscar Peterson, Ahmad Jamal, and Bill Evans. Yamamoto’s highly experienced trio - which has a combined age of 215 years - features bassist Hiroshi Kagawa (香川 裕史) and drummer Toshio Osumi (大隅 寿男). A Shade Of Blue reveals the three musicians’ incredible musical chemistry; listening to the ten tracks they’ve recorded together, it’s as if they breathe, think, and feel as one person; such is the musical empathy between them. A Shade Of Blue will be released by Evosound.
