about

Two titans of jazz piano are captured in flight on the new Resonance Records album, Tommy Flanagan/Jaki Byard: The Magic of 2. Scheduled for April 9 release as a CD with 24-page booklet, a digital download with digital booklet, and a deluxe limited edition 2-LP set,The Magic of 2 presents a 1982 concert recorded at San Francisco’s celebrated Keystone Korner and the second entry in Resonance’s Keystone Discoveries series.

“It’s a revelation, how well they played together,” says Keystone’s owner Todd Barkan, who co-produced the CD with Resonance Records’ Executive Vice President and General Manager Zev Feldman. “They had quite disparate styles, but they share such an incredibly large vocabulary and frame of reference that it makes their language coherent. They’re both referring to the same knowledge and experience of the history of jazz piano.”

The music is a “gift [from the past that] is both unique and stupendous,” says jazz historian Dan Morgenstern, one of seven annotators in the CD package’s 24-page illustrated booklet. ” . . . Alone and especially together, Tommy and Jaki show us what spontaneous creation is all about.”

“Mr. Flanagan had ”perfected his own niche, a style beyond style,
where the only appropriate comparisons are between his inspired
performances and those that are merely characteristic.”
– Gary Giddins ... more
