Angle is an album by English jazz pianist Howard Riley, which was released on CBS in 1969 as part of their Realm Jazz Series, and reissued on CD by Columbia in 1999. It features his working trio of that period, with bassist Barry Guy and drummer Alan Jackson. The fully notated "Three Fragments" is a flute-piano duet with Barbara Thompson.

Reception

The Penguin Guide to Jazz notes that "Riley is the only credited composer on the album, which perhaps accounts for its thoughtful and rather reserved character."
