Jeff Parker has had quite a year, but he may have saved the best for last. Mondays at the Enfield Tennis Academy, released by Eremite Records last month, offers up four sidelong pieces recorded live in Los Angeles over the past few years.

It’s an uncommonly intimate live recording — the players seem to be extremely at ease in this small club setting.
