Houston Person / Ron Carter - Remember Love (2018) [Official Digital Download]

Over twenty-five years ago, this duo began their first collaboration with an album entitled 'Something In Common'. Six releases later they remain committed to the format. In this session of standards, the tunes have been culled from the American Songbook with the intention of providing unabashed look at life, love, youth and beauty.

Houston Person's tenor tone is smooth, warm and easy-going, and the duo format brings out his romantic side. Ron Carter, meanwhile, is in complete charge of the music's harmony and rhythm, well aware of the manifold accompaniment possibilities each tune presents, and able to move seamlessly between an astounding number of those possibilities. So if you want to hear two masters at work, playing off and for each other, this is the place to be.
