Description
The Trinity Sessions is an album project by the American musicians Lanny Cordola, Tony Guerrero, and Joel Hamiltons, released on Frontline Records in 1995, distributed by Diamante.
Those rock buffs who revere Lanny Cordola as one of THE rock axemen will be bemused by some of their heroes prolific recordings this past year or two. For example, on this one he’s brought in trumpeter Tony Guerrero and double bass man Joel Hamilton who with Lanny play cool, ‘3-in-the-moming’ style renditions of Christian songs mixed in with a few standards of the Cole Porter era and some jazz classics. Of the latter they miss out most badly, nobody should attempt «Well You Needn’t» or «Festive Minor» unless they can better Thelonius Monk or Gerry Mulligan (no easy feat) but on the whole this is thoroughly pleasant jazz with Lanny showing some nice runs and solos with a tone a bit like a cross between Wes Montgomery and Jim Hall. But it’s all pretty anonymous really, so in a way Lanny has come up with a most appropriate name for his jazz aggregation. [Tony Cummings, Cross Rhythms, December 1995]
