About "Freakish (Take 1)" by Jelly Roll Morton Trio
A 1920s piano trio take that lurches with gleeful menace. Morton’s keys flicker like gaslight on wet cobblestones, each syncopation a sly wink. The title’s ‘freakish’ charm hides a restless unease—calm stride piano masking a jittery, off-kilter pulse.
