ANDREW HILL RELEASES NEW ALBUM 'TIME LINES'

NEW YORK (Blue Note Records) - 'Like Hines, Tatum, and Monk before him, Andrew Hill pushes jazz to new ground.'
Playboy, 2006 Jazz Artist of the Year

With his first recording for the label since 1990, the innovative, acclaimed pianist/composer Andrew Hill begins his third era with Blue Note Records with his new quintet recording, TIME LINES. Hill first made a name for himself with a series of groundbreaking albums for the label between 1963–1970 that included Point of Departure, Black Fire & Judgment!

Time Lines finds Hill, at 68 years old, forever pushing forward at the helm of a vastly creative quintet that gives gorgeous readings of eight new Hill compositions and reunites him with the trumpeter Charles Tolliver, who was featured on several of Hill's early Blue Note sessions.
