Josh Cole Quartet - [set 1, third piece] [edit]

Excellent work from this occasional combo that brings double bassist Josh Cole together with Ryan Driver (piano), Karen Ng (alto sax) and Brandon Valdivia (drums). The first set was filled with rampaging energy (including some action shaker work from Driver as heard on the second piece here) while the second (excerpted in the video below) dipped into balladic slow-flow introspection. Truly a treat.
