Saxophonist Dave O’Higgins and guitarist Rob Luft present their second recording “Pluto” three years after “Play Monk & Trane”. An album of straight-ahead modern jazz in the African American tradition with seven original songs, and two Monk & Trane hits. This is jazz in the African-American tradition, clearly coming from the Monk and Trane lineage, but not bound to emulating it. With Ross Stanley on piano, Misha Mullov-Abbado on bass and American drummer Rod Youngs.
