A spritely modern take on bebop from Ravi, who's developed a respected identity separate from his famous dad. Lots of spirited playing with firey sax solos, well executed. Ravi plays fast and fluid, with a dry funky snap that recalls Steve Coleman's M-Base stuff -- not as rhythmically complex, but definitely a nod in that direction (see #2 especially). 1*- Fast, Ravi gets into the quick-flowing notes immediately 2*- Mid/fast funk, a bit like Steve Coleman 3- Gently but rapidly tumbling. Theme in 5/8 time 4- Staggery and short 5- Mingus tune. Slow and pleasant. 6- Mid/fast 7*- A fast, disjointed "Round Midnight" 8- Fast 9- Monk standard, slow, warm 10- Midtempo, a cool little vibe | ||
