Riley, Howard

Live In The Usa

'Live In The USA' is a captivating archival release showcasing British pianist Howard Riley's exceptional solo piano work during a pivotal period in his career. Known for pioneering the trio format alongside bassist Barry Guy and drummer Tony Oxley, Riley's unaccompanied performances push boundaries with ferocious focus, stamina, and technical brilliance. Recorded during his time in the US in 1976-77, this 74-minute collection features four extended tracks that highlight Riley's dense, hyperspeed playing and intense exploration of ideas. Echoing the influence of Cecil Taylor, yet distinctly his own, Riley's performance is a tour de force of avant-garde piano.
