Here's a rather nice trio show by Yamashita. I got this from dime and did quite a lot of editing to get this into better shape. Sound is not perfect, but it's still an FM recording, so... definitively listenable, in my opinion.
Yamashita is joined by French bassist Michel Benita and Swiss drummer Daniel Humair. Together, they make for a very fine trio!
Humair was subject of a couple of earlier posts:
Strasbourg 2008 (with Tony Malaby & Joachim Kühn)
Paris 2008 (with Tryptic - Humair/Celea/Couturier)
And finally, he can be heard with Roland Kirk
here.
