Charlie follows up his critically acclaimed releases 'Right Now Move' (2003) & 'Come in Red Dog, This Is Tango Leader' (2004 - with Bobby Previte) with his first trio record in 10 years - 'Friends Seen & Unseen'. Charlie says, "This is the best record I've ever made". Produced by Lee Townsend (Kelly Joe Phelps, Elvis Costello, Pat Metheny) 'Friends Seen & Unseen' sees Charlie team up with John Ellis & Derek Phillips to deliver his strongest set yet, which is sure to give him his 10th consecutive #1 contemporary jazz record.
