Tracing the historic path of this particular trio type saxophone, bass and drums, no chordal instrument leads back to saxophonist Sonny Rollins’ A Night At The Village Vanguard (Blue Note, 1958). The sound on that seminal recording is raw, rough around the edges, with the trio bumping through a bunch of familiar tunes, enjoying the freedom from chords.

There From Here, the debut of the Toronto-based trio Tune Town, employs a smoother approach, with tenor saxophonist Kelly Jefferson sounding more like Coleman Hawkins than Rollins. The compositions are mostly band member originals, with a couple of brief-but-invigorating collective improvisations thrown in, along with a gorgeous, slow-as-molasses take on Duke Ellington’s “Sophisticated Lady” and a relaxed, cool-flowing rendition of Cole Porter’s “All Of You.”
