AMG Review of Tivoli Two
Scott Yanow
All Music GuideThe second of two recordings, this set also finds the classic bop pianist Duke Jordan being joined by bassist Wilbur Little and drummer Dannie Richmond, live from the Tivoli Gardens in Copehnagen. This time around Jordan interprets three originals (a lengthy "No Problem," a blues and "Jordu" which functions functions as a closing theme) along with three standards. Jordan is heard at the top of his game during these swinging and probing performances.
