Segala, Luca Libertrio – “La Rete Indra” – [Amirani Records/Amirani Contemporary]

Hemroid The Leader   4/12/2018   CD, Jazz

Sax-bass-drums trio recorded in Milan, 2015. Tony’s Hungry is an Afro-mid-eastern groove that recalls John Zorn’s Masada. Segala’s free-and-easy melodic tenor brings to mind classic Sonny Rollins. At the same time, Segala’s compositions are very sharp. Fresh take, not dated. A quality recording. Intellectual blues, European jazz.
