The Harry Miller Trio is what many trios hope to be, and the Harry Miller Trio is an example of a trio perfectly balanced in performance, solo, group blendings of musical motifs, and enjoyable listening pleasure. Excellent sound and excellent production values also highlight this live concert recorded on June 7, 1998 at the Paterson Museum in Paterson, New Jersey.
