RE Person I Knew - A Tribute To Scott LaFaro
*NEW RELEASE*
RE: Person I Knew
A Tribute To Scott LaFaro

2011 marks the 50th anniversary of the untimely death of bass legend Scott LaFaro. To mark this occasion, Phil recorded a tribute to the bass great that features Bill Evans alumnus and drum legend Eliot Zigumnd and piano great (and former roommate of Scott's) Don Friedman.

With the encouragment and blessing of the LaFaro estate and Barrie Kolstein, Palombi was granted permission to use Scott LaFaro's 1825 Abraham Prescott bass for the occasion! It's the first time since Scott's death that the bass has been used for a whole recording.

Tri-Fi

Matthew Fries, Phil Palombi and Keith Hall were brought together as the backing trio for jazz vocalist, Curtis Stigers, and toured extensively building up a level of musical communication that has become rare in the jazz world. In 2003 they began performing as the trio, TRI-FI - stepping into the spotlight and building on this musical chemistry with original compositions, new arrangements, and a vibrant swing in the tradition of the classic jazz piano trio. The result has been rave reviews.
