Maroons is an album by pianist Geri Allen recorded in 1992 and released on the Blue Note label.[1]
AllMusic awarded the album 4½ stars, stating, "This excellent recording is easily recommended to her fans and potential new devotees".[2]
In an article for Jazz Times, Michael J. West praised "Number Four," writing that Allen "anticipates Belgrave's every melodic and rhythmic move—at times sticking-and-moving, a la Earl Hines with Armstrong. She picks up his pathways on her solo... but turns them in her own direction, as if his improvised figures were the written material on which she was improvising. It's a remarkable achievement, one deserving of close attention within her catalogue."[3]
