Denny Zeitlin’s discography is a treasure trove of sonic exploration, each album a chapter in his evolving narrative. Among his notable works, the “Vinyl” series stands out as a testament to Zeitlin’s prowess and versatility.

1. “Vinyl: Denny Zeitlin Trio” (1964)

The inaugural entry in the Vinyl series, this album captures Zeitlin in his early years. The trio format, featuring Charlie Haden on bass and Jerry Granelli on drums, provides a canvas for Zeitlin’s intricate piano work. The compositions blend elements of post-bop and free jazz, offering a glimpse into the artist’s formative years.

2. “Zeitgeist” (1967)

As the Vinyl series progressed, Zeitlin’s experimentation with electronic elements became more pronounced. “Zeitgeist” is a pivotal album that introduces synthesizers into the mix. The result is a groundbreaking fusion of jazz improvisation and avant-garde electronic soundscapes, foreshadowing Zeitlin’s later forays into electronic music.

3. “Syzygy” (1977)

A noteworthy entry in the Vinyl series, “Syzygy” showcases Zeitlin’s continued evolution. This album, featuring bassist Charlie Haden and drummer Jerry Granelli once again, delves into a more introspective and contemplative space. Zeitlin’s compositions exhibit a refined complexity, and the interplay between the musicians reaches new heights of sophistication.

4. “Wishing on the Moon” (2018)

In a testament to his enduring creativity, Zeitlin released “Wishing on the Moon” in 2018, marking a return to the Vinyl series after a substantial hiatus. The album features Buster Williams on bass and Matt Wilson on drums, illustrating Zeitlin’s ability to collaborate seamlessly with a new generation of musicians. The compositions, while rooted in jazz traditions, showcase Zeitlin’s continued exploration of contemporary elements.
