Accessible stuff with lots of room to wander; another of Douglas' creatively mainstream sessions. Overall rather gentle, with a sophisticated, cerebral touch, relying heavily on a '60s horn sound. With electric piano for a gently, loungy atmosphere. Bill Frisell is on guitar here, and many of the tracks were written particularly for him, resulting in a country/blues lilt here (7) or a ghostly echoing passage there (4,6). 1- Rolling, sparkling little piece 2*- Midtempo, lots of free wandering 3- Gentle, w/old-fashioned jazz feel 4- Slow, a bit ghostly 5*- Mid/fast 6- Spacey slowness, relaxing 7- Bar-band rockabilly feel w/soft jazz horns. Bluesy. 8- Mid/fast swaying, peaceful feel 10- Midtempo 11*- Mid/fast, some blazing sax soloing | ||
