"This 2006 set has some parallels with the Esbjorn Svensson Trio in its use of catchy repeating hooks as anchors to the improvising. There are some memorable themes, and much fine spontaneous playing from Cohen and his partners, Sam Barsh (piano) and Mark Guiliana (drums), with Amos Hoffman's oud on half the tracks. Middle-eastern melodies, Keith Jarrettish reflective piano interludes, waltzes that would engage Brad Mehldau fans, hot Iberian dances - it all adds up to Cohen listening to himself again rather than second-guessing the punters." Note:this is the bass playing Cohen!
