SHM-SACD

A wonderful collaboration between a horn player and a singer, perhaps the greatest of all time. This delicate, seductive album stands immortalised in time as tribute, a nod to the genius that was Coltrane/Hartman. The more you listen to it, the more subtle genius details reveal themselves to you, in particular how the saxophone helps tell the story with nuance, sensitivity and re-spect.

The trio achieves a flawless blend of rhythm, subtlety, and technical brilliance, seamlessly weaving the era’s bossa nova influences with the trio’s signature jazz swing, demonstrating their exceptional ability to infuse familiar styles with fresh energy and creative sophistication. Each track on We Get Requests highlights the musicians’ remarkable synergy. Peterson’s inventive phrasing, Brown’s creative bass lines, and Thigpen’s nuanced rhythms create a vibrant and profound sound that is uniquely their own.
