Two's Company is an album by pianist Joe Albany and bassist Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen recorded in 1974 and released on the SteepleChase label.[4]
Reception
[edit]The Allmusic review awarded the album 4 stars stating "This duet set with bassist Niels-Henning Orsted Pedersen finds Albany in particularly good form on six veteran standards ...His lyrical and boppish style was still very much intact and Albany is heard in prime form on the thoughtful yet swinging set".[1] The Penguin Guide to Jazz expressed a preference for this album over Birdtown Birds, but wrote that "Albany often sounds less radical than merely clumsy and the solo passages are rife with misfingerings".[2]
