Mostly improvised settings featuring saxophonist Borgo in small groups with various friends, including George Lewis (trombone), Rober Reigle (sax), and Bertram Turetzky (bass).
Sticks mostly to energetic free-jazzy territory. Tracks 2,4,8,12 are composed and have nice mainstream elements, and 13 has a catchy jazzy feel.
1- Percolating jam with drums, starts slow but gets cooking
*2- Rolling midtempo theme and nice two-sax soloing
3- Three-sax blare, mostly slow and brash
4- Driving mid/fast, with lengthy free chaos. Quintet.
5- Exotic mid-Eastern feel, lots of percussion. Fast but quiet.
6- Quiet percussion; second half louder and slowish
7- Solo "claumeau" (clarinet-like). Quiet and exotic.
*8- With piano. Starts romantic, gets stormy and mad
9- Three-sax attack: a long-tone blare, then combat swirling
*10- Fast sax/drums duet (long drum intro)
11- Low, mysterious rumble with bass & drums. Aggressive end.
12- With piano. Rational composed start dissolves into a rumble
*13- Cool street-jazz jam with percussion.
