Buster Williams
Pianist Noah Haidu’s impeccably performed and recorded “Standards II” is a winner.
This fine documentary of a highly respected elder bassist presents a clear, focused picture of a man who is also a jazz musician.
There are no missteps on this disc. Buster Williams and company make all the complications swing, mightily.
