On Like Minds, Broadbent leads a stalwart trio whose other members are bassist

Harvie S
bass, acousticb.1948

Billy Mintz
drumsOn Like Minds, that something special includes Broadbent's perceptive choice of material. To amplify a quartet of too-seldom-heard standards, the trio performs luminous jazz originals by

Hank Mobley
saxophone, tenor1930 - 1986

Sonny Rollins
saxophoneb.1930

Bud Powell
piano1924 - 1966

Charlie Parker
saxophone, alto1920 - 1955
Of course, it is one thing to have excellent material, and quite another to play it well. Any problem there? None that is perceptible to the ear. Broadbent, in his mid-seventies, is playing as well as ever, while Harvie S and Mintz know how to make a rhythm section sparkle. In sum, this is a solid and pleasurable hour-long session by a trio of world-class jazz musicians. ">
