With Dave Knife Fabris
 
In the midst of their third international tour together, Blake and Fabris played a concert at the venerable BIMhuis in Amsterdam. As they left, the great folks at the venue handed them a recording of their set which was promptly packed away for the remainder of the tour. 15 years later, during the pandemic, the Knife found this recording and realized it was the best playing ever captured by this duo!  
 
Blake’'s solo playing is sublime as always but the duo is locked in, finishing each other's thoughts and creating a magical conversation. 
 
"...the duo (and trio) experience that Blake and Fabris had together shines through and they sound comfortable together from first note to last. Exquisite." (John Eyles, All About Jazz 10/28/24)
