HOWARD RILEY "Two is One" (2005) EMANEM 4127

For his first overdubbed piano recording in 25 years, Riley recorded one part as if he were playing a solo, then immediately overdubbed a second part while the first was still fresh in his mind. The end result is nine duo improvisations, plus a jazz tribute to Monk. 62 minutes.
