    About this album

    Sleeping Bee is a fine late-60s Billy Taylor Trio album that balances bop fluency with refined lyrical poise. Issued in 1969, it finds Taylor, one of jazz’s great pianist-composers and advocates, leading a compact trio setting with clarity, swing and harmonic control. The performance draws on the post-bop vocabulary without losing the melodic directness that made Taylor such a persuasive communicator. Across pieces such as "Brother Where Are You?" and "There Will Never Be Another You", the trio combines deft interaction with an easy command of tempo and mood, making the record a strong example of Taylor’s elegant, listener-friendly approach to modern jazz.
