Recorded in 1997, Juni was the fourth and final ECM album of the Peter Erskine Trio. A piano trio led by a drummer was an unusual proposal and one that initially surprised listeners who had followed Erskine through louder adventures with Weather Report and the Stan Kenton Big Band. But this alliance with pianist Taylor, the trio’s primary composer, and Palle Danielsson soon found its own following, with audiences mesmerized by the band’s chemistry and the power of their virtuosic understatement.
