For over thirty years, Larry Goldings has been hailed as one of the greatest jazz organists of his generation, a premise made salient with the continued success of his long-standing organ trio with guitarist Peter Bernstein and drummer Bill Stewart. However, the brightly glowing accolades for his organ playing have perhaps blinded the jazz-loving public to Goldings’ equally astonishing and singularly unique talents on the piano, beyond those fortunate enough to catch a live show in Los Angeles (his home since 2001).
Recorded live over the course of two memorable nights at Sam First, “I Will” showcases Larry Goldings and his LA-based trio with Karl McComas-Reichl (bass) and Christian Euman (drums) in an intimate piano trio performance featuring songs by Goldings, George Gershwin, Paul McCartney and more
That the album is live contextualizes it with other recorded shows by notable piano trios – Oscar Peterson, Bill Evans, Chick Corea, Keith Jarrett, Fred Hersch (Goldings’ third cousin), Brad Mehldau, et al – and the brilliant performance of Goldings’ trio invites and deserves such lofty comparisons.
For Goldings, this album not only serves as a proclamation of his pianistic prowess, but also a bit of a reckoning (or reconciliation) for him as a pianist.
