Oldie but goodie

In "Trio Jeepy" from 1988, which I bought recently, you can tell Branford Marsalis is going to become the guy I think is the Coltrane of his era (in his inventiveness not necessarily his sound, although he's closer to Coltrane's sound on this disk than he is today, when his own sound is in full flower). The legendary Milt Hinton on bass and Jeff "Tain" Watts on drums only add to the goodness. Every cut is an improvisational treat. Fine stuff.
