The recent passing of Abdullah Ibrahim has forced us to revisit his albums again. We were pleasantly reminded of "81st Street" from the 1960s, a recording with Gato Barbieri of Argentina. With just the introspective style of Dollar Brand and Gato Barbieri's inventive wailing on saxophone, it is impressive how "81st Street" sounds as if it was recorded by a larger band.
