New Jazz

What new jazz records have you been enjoying recently?
I've got really into Ivo Neame's Yatra again recently, sorta bounced off it last year and have started picking it up again. It's got a really nice lineup that shouldn't work as well as it does...but in the end the ensemble gives him a really nice palette to work with, and his arrangements are super-nice..especially the way the vibes are used. Jim Hart is such a good player.
Coupla tracks here:

but the whole record is on Spotify. Also he looks a bit like Alastair Campbell.
