Sunday Music Muse Day (Monday Edition) Artemis, Paul Motion Trio

Here's my Sunday Music Muse Day post, a day late due to Mother's Day. First up is Artemis In Real Time.  Artemis is an all female jazz group that has be turning heads in the jazz world for their great music.  I have the first recording and this out grabbed me with the first tune on the CD, "Slink" written by late Lyle Mays, known for his collaborative work with Pat Metheny for many years.  Artemis wonderful group worth seeking out.  I hope they come to Rochester jazz festival sometime.




My second pick is the Paul Motian Trio At the Village Vanguard, a 1995 live recording at the legendary New York City jazz club.  The is rather a laid back outing with leader Motian on drums and Joe Lovano on tenor saxophone, and Bill Frisell on guitar, and guitar synthesizer.  It starts off a with a tune that has a "jazz loft feel" and  it keep the sense of intimacy and adventure, throughout. Good stuff.  Actually, I'll pick up anything with Bill Frisell on it. 






Here's hoping everyone had a wonderful Mother Day.
