CD CHANCE AND CHANCE - CASCO 008 - 2022 Jazzword.com , juli 2023 De tripartiete expressie en grillige humor van het Amsterdamse Blue Lines Trio past de groep als een goed kledingstuk. Het album bevat 15 (!) selecties, waarvan de meeste zijn gecomponeerd door de twee Nederlandse leden, pianist Michiel Scheen en bassist Raoul van der Weide, ingevuld met bijdragen van de Australische-in-Nederland-wonende drummer George Hadow. De routiniers uit de geavanceerde muziekscene van de stad beginnen het album met de kinetische en bijna honky-tonk bounce van "Diddleville" en houden de dynamiek gedurende het hele stuk vast. Net als andere tracks op deze plaat draait dit stuk om de spiccato frasering van de bassist, de veerkrachtige shuffles van de drummer en de nadrukkelijke akkoorden en stop-start-pulseringen van de pianist. Net als Thelonious Monk, wiens onverwachte hoekige terzijdes hij soms nabootst, brengt ook Scheen subtiele humor in de nummers. In sommige stukken wordt je oor voor

CD CHANCE AND CHANGE - Casco 008 - 2022 Jazzword.com , july 2023 Expanding a well fit garment of tripartite expression and whimsical humor are the 15 (!) selections performed by the Amsterdam-based Blues Lines Trio. Most selections were composed by the two Dutch members, pianist Michiel Scheen and bassist Raoul van der Weide, with Australian-in-the-Netherlands drummer George Hadow contributing to them and the nine improvisations which make up the rest of the disc. Veteran members of the city’s advanced music gestalt, the trio begins with the kinetic and near-honky-tonk bounce of “Diddleville” and keeps up the dynamic all the way through. This piece like others centres around the bassist’s spiccato sluices, the drummer’s springy shuffles and the pianist’s emphasized chords and stop-start pulsations. Like Thelonious Monk, whose unexpected angular asides he sometimes emulates, Scheen also brings puckish humor to the selections. It’s reflected in some tracks where the group fools the ear b
