Album Review

Reviewed 2003-12-13
Solo saxophone improvisations in a multitiude of styles (see song titles).
Mostly melodic, often exaggerated and cartoonish, much less serious than most solo-instrument CDs.

1- Long, soft, breathy notes
2*- Street-corner sax with some avant scribbling added
3- Wandering and semi-pensive, not very compelling
4- Small, spat-out notes. Couple moments of tunefulness.
5- Mellow, melodic and pretty
6- Rapid back-and-forth motions
7- Long annoying notes
8- Quick scribbles, like trying to imitate speech. Gets fierce.
9- Small tuneful flurries
10*- Fast stacatto
11- Loud and grumpy
12*- Rhythmic in a start/stop way, almost bluesy
13*- Quiet tickly sounds, gets into some melodic playing
