Album Review
Craig Matsumoto
Reviewed 2003-10-05
Jazz-minded improvisations from Giardullo (sax) and some of his cohorts including Joe McPhee on trumpet.

1*- Quick-footed free bop. Gets quiet and exploratory later.
2- Perky, upbeat wanderings
3- Slow and kind of mystical. Closes with a richly melodic segment
4*- Scattery abstractions. Starts mid/fast and accelerates.
5- Melancholy
6*- Sad, w/ firey fast sax solo
7- Peaceful/sad, a duet with trumpet and soft toms
