The Printmakers is the first album by the pianist Geri Allen.[1][2] It was recorded in February 1984 in Germany and released on the German Minor Music label.[3]
AllMusic awarded the album 4½ stars, stating: "This session will prove to be an ear-opening experience for those familiar with Geri Allen's more mainstream work."[4]NPR called the album "a tight, imaginative trio session."[2]The New York Times wrote that Allen's "ballads demonstrate a rich, coloristic sense of harmony, and she can hurtle through atonal passages with steel-fingered momentum."[1]
