John Abercrombie / Marc Johnson / Peter Erskine is a live album by American jazz guitarist John Abercrombie recorded at the Nightstage in Boston on April 21, 1988 and released on ECM the following year. The trio features rhythm section Marc Johnson and Peter Erskine.[1]
The AllMusic review by Ron Wynn states, "The trio sometimes unite for piercing interpretations as on 'Stella by Starlight' and other times collide and interact on furious rhythm dialogues and extended improvisations."[2]
The Penguin Guide to Jazz said, "Not known as a big standards player Abercrombie turns in a beautiful 'Stella by Starlight' here, perfectly weighted this side of sentimentality, and an unforgettable version of the less well-known Dietz/Schwatrz 'Haunted Heart'. Johnson and Erskine make a convincing team."[3]
