CD Notes: The idea behind "Session III" is simple - bring three exceptional musicians into the studio and record them improvising. Although Tom, Marty and Jeff have played together in various groups over the years, the improvisation on the cd titled "First Meeting", was the trio's first free improvisation. All the music on this cd is freely improvised with the exception of two freely rendered versions of Charlie Chaplin's "Smile". Enjoy!

Musicians: Tom Hall, Tenor and Baritone Saxophone
Marty Ballou, Bass
Jeff Galindo, Trombone

Recorded at: PBS Studios, Westwood, MA
Recorded & Mastered by Peter Kontrimas
