This is an interesting set featuring both
Philip Catherine and the lesser-known
Christian Escoude on guitars, plus violinist
Didier Lockwood -- not a typical trio record. The music often swings a la
Django Reinhardt and
Stephane Grappelli, but the repertoire (three songs apiece by each of the musicians) is more advanced, actually falling into the post-bop genre.
Lockwood in particular excels in this setting, making one regret that this Gramavision LP has yet to be reissued on CD.
