The organ trio has been a staple of small-group jazz for more than half a century, but Mike LeDonne has expanded its range and power by adding another voice, that of the superlative tenor saxophonist Eric Alexander. With LeDonne scorching the Hammond B3, Alexander adding heat to the proceedings at every turn and Peter Bernstein and Joe Farnsworth stoking the boiler room, this is an album that grooves emphatically from the outset the sort of session that will surely have listeners grinning from ear to ear.
