After playing together in multiple original music settings since meeting in Berkeley in the early '70s, NY saxophonist Williamson and famed pianist Art Lande here gather to apply their singular musical voices to an open-ended and spontaneous set of standards. With their longtime friends from the San Francisco Bay-area, bassist Peter Barshay and drummer Alan Hall, the group explore music from jazz standards such as Joe Henderson's "Mamacita," to early 20th-century classics "Don't Blame Me," "Sweet and Lovely," and "Just You, Just Me." Besides being a superior showcase for the musicians individually and their abilities at interaction, Standard Transmission offers a fresh approach to the standards, bringing vintage songs into the present.
