The album moves between Allen's writing and familiar material without turning into a standards-only date, and the interaction between piano, bass, and drums keeps the set connected to both modern jazz language and the acoustic trio tradition as a vinyl record.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\"RTG\" opens the album with Allen's own writing, while \"If I Should Lose You\" brings a well-known standard into the trio's frame. \"Drummer's Song\" points directly to the rhythmic role of Tony Williams, and \"Introspection \/ Thelonious\" places Monk's influence in the sequence without making the album a tribute project. Later selections such as \"Feed The Fire,\" \"Old Folks,\" and \"In The Middle\" show how the program alternates between Allen originals and classic repertoire across the complete 2LP layout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRecorded with Carter on bass and Williams on drums, \u003cem\u003eTwenty One\u003c\/em\u003e documents Allen in a trio setting that connects Detroit, New York, and the post-bop tradition through her own compositions and chosen standards. This Blue Note Classic Vinyl Series edition is mastered by Kevin Gray from the original master tapes and pressed on 180g vinyl at Optimal, presenting the album as a 2LP reissue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2LP Vinyl Record\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandout tracks:\u003c\/strong\u003e \"RTG,\" \"If I Should Lose You,\" \"Feed The Fire,\" \"In The Middle\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressing details:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blue Note Classic Vinyl Series, 180g Vinyl, Mastered By Kevin Gray, Pressed At Optimal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenre\/style:\u003c\/strong\u003e Post-Bop, Piano Jazz, Contemporary Jazz, Jazz Standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 602438761883\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eTwenty One\u003c\/em\u003e works well for listeners drawn to piano trio records with strong players and a varied program. \"RTG,\" \"Feed The Fire,\" and \"In The Middle\" emphasize Allen's writing, while \"Old Folks\" connects the album to the jazz standard tradition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/CyLC-v_JX9Q?si=XbRcz_f8t8a-CnUA\" title=\"YouTube video player\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003cbr\u003e* The Youtube track list may not exactly represent the tracks and audio of this LP edition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eTrack List:\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eSide A:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRTG\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIf I Should Lose You\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDrummer's Song\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIntrospection \/ Thelonious\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eSide B:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA Beautiful Friendship\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn The Morning (For Sister Leola)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTea For Two\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eSide C:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLullaby Of The Leaves\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFeed The Fire\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eSide D:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOld Folks\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA Place Of Power\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn The Middle\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Geri Allen Trio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51669739012417,"sku":"0602438761883","price":37.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0877\/7662\/4961\/files\/geri-allen-trio-twenty-one-2-lp-black-vinyl-album-cover-1883_70b1890f-85ad-45d2-8d90-5a38cf201fa7.jpg?v=1777159701","url":"https:\/\/www.toucanrecords.com\/products\/geri-allen-trio-twenty-one-2-lp-blue-note-classic-vinyl","provider":"Toucan Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
