After 27 years and nearly 20 albums, it must still be repeated that Bill Charlap is one of the greatest jazz pianists, and that his trio with bassist Peter Washington and drummer Kenny Washington is one of the greatest jazz groups of our time. These truths are evident on the new album by the Bill Charlap Trio released on Blue Note, "And Then Again," recorded live at the Village Vanguard. The album is a showcase for the locked-in accord and extrasensory communication shared among the three musicians, their rapid yet diamond-sharp decision-making, and the solid ground of the repertoire opposed to the improvised feather of arrangement, and the many wonderful and unforgettable moments that result.
