Genre: Jazz
FCCs: none
Review: a short EP with a full band expressing basic contexts with almost no solos. The band is tight. The first five tracks are short & to the point and flow into one another. Track 6 runs 13 minutes and is more typically contemporary jazz
if You Like: Tower of Power, Hank Crawford
Track review (favorites denoted by *):
*1/ Desire ( ) - bass starts> gorgeous slow tempo melody with trumpet overlay> piano solo> slow jam builds in intensity> fade & quick stop
*2/ Humility ( ) - piano starts> swings quickly uptempo with horns upfront> piano solo> horns surge & wail> quick fade
3/ Knowledge ( ) - Rhodes piano starts> slow tempo jam> trumpet solo> jam> fade
4/ Perspective ( ) - piano starts with large crescendo & slides into slow tempo jam with a bossa feel> builds in intensity> fade
*5/ Integrity ( ) - piano starts> uptempo jam> with heavy percussion> sax solo> expansive uptempo jam> fade
*6/ Truth ( ) - piano starts> midtempo subtle jam> slow build in intensity & interplay> chorus kicks in over the top> false stop> piano swings to uptempo jam> sax solo> chorus> drops to subtle midtempo jam with strings> builds in intensity> chorus carries to the end> fade
