Quartet of accessible jazz with some wildness in the sax solos by Lake (of the World Saxophone Quartet) and Tchicai, both of them getting a bit outside the lines without departing from the tradition. The composing doesn't always grab me, but the soloing spaces are good. Drums have an unusual tendency toward military-march snare, dunno if that's an Albert Ayler influence or just this guy's preference. 1- Mid/fast, warm with march-beat snare. Loosens up for solos. 2- Mid/fast, a kind of plodding swing (but nice) 3- Midtempo 4- Light bop, midtempo, w/some fairly free soloing 5- German talking, faint improv rustles 6- Midtempo, a bit of stern military feel 7- Chant-singing, kind of spiritual. Then a scrabbly sax solo. 8- Light groove, into a mid/fast upbeat feel a la Ayler | ||
