Pure is the fourth album (but third released) by jazz saxophonist Chris Potter, recorded in 1994 and released in 1995 by the Concord Jazz label. Appearing on the album is Potter’s frequent collaborator, guitarist John Hart. Also appearing are organist/pianist Larry Goldings, bassist Larry Grenadier and veteran drummer Al Foster. According to praise from Neil Tesser in 1998, Goldings plays with "virtually none of the traditional organ-jazz fare" on this album. [2]
