This is a DSD Exclusive, Not Available on SACD release,\r\n\r\nHolly Cole writes  \u003cem\u003e\"When I made this album I didn’t know what to expect. All I knew was that I was excited; excited to work with producer Russ Titelman, excited to work at Sear Sound Studio in New York, a wonderful studio I had recorded songs from my “Temptation” recording in and excited to record with a whole new band that Russ Titelman had assembled. It was an interesting experience for me to walk in the studio on day one of recording and meet most of these people for the first time. And then play songs that I basically did not participate in arranging. That’s pretty different for me. I consider arranging to be a substantial part of my identity as a musician. Having less control was challenging. And what I found was that it took me to new places as a singer.\u003c\/em\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cem\u003eRuss and I both wanted Larry Goldings as the piano player and arranger for the New York sessions. Apart from being an astounding musician he shares my musical aesthetic and is a kindred spirit.\u003c\/em\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cem\u003eRuss suggested that I do a couple of vocal duets with trombone player\/singer Wycliffe Gordon. I haven’t done that many vocal duets before. It can be hard to find the right chemistry musically and personally with another singer. Wycliffe and I fell in from the get go. He’s such a fascinating man and a great singer and trombone player. Singing with him was pure joy.\u003c\/em\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cem\u003eThe sessions in New York were very intensive. That was a great way to work because we all got to know each other personally and musically very quickly. We did few takes and were able to record those precious moments of discovery. That is so important to me. Capturing the spark of musicians connecting with one another and discovering the essence of the song while recording is rare and fantastic. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003eTo me this is the greatest joy in improvised music.\u003c\/em\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cem\u003eWhen I got home to Toronto I was brimming with ideas and enthusiasm and excited to share these ideas and determined to record several more songs for the record. I love playing with my original Trio members Aaron Davis and David Piltch, piano and bass and along with drummer Davide DiRenzo and John Johnson on horns we recorded three more tracks that made the record. And then we were done, it’s my hope you come to enjoy the fruits of our collective labors as much as we all do, happy listening!\" \u003c\/em\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eHolly Cole - Vocals \u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eLarry Goldings - Piano \u0026amp; Hammond B3 Organ\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eAaron Davis - Piano and Fender Rhodes\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eEd Cherry - Guitar\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eWycliffe Gordon - Vocals \u0026amp; Trombone \u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eScott Robinson - Tenor Sax \u0026amp; Cornet\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eJohn Johnson - Flute\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eBen Street - Bass\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eDavid Piltch - Bass\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eJustin Faulkner - Drums\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eDavid DiRenzo - Drums\u003c\/strong\u003e","brand":"2xHD","offers":[{"title":"DSD 128 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56739175072068,"sku":"2XHDRR1101-15","price":25.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 256 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56739175104836,"sku":"2XHDRR1101-16","price":29.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56739175137604,"sku":"2XHDRR1101-6","price":20.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56739175170372,"sku":"2XHDRR1101-7","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":57310196105540,"sku":"2XHDRR1101-14","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0966\/7900\/2436\/files\/2XHDRR1101-2.jpg?v=1790500981","url":"https:\/\/www.nativedsd.com\/products\/2xhdrr1101-holly","provider":"NativeDSD Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
