Highly recommended – again!
Fantastic double vinyl upgrade w/bonus track presenting a new studio session of all-improvised material – the group went into the studio with nothing set out – from a trio that sees saxophone colossus David S. Ware accompanied by bassist William Parker and Warren Smith on drums, tympani and percussion. Recorded live in (((3D Sound))) this is a session that you can really get your head inside with Ware on lucid evangelical form and playing in a hallelujah style that tips the hat to Third Ear Recitation/Earthquation-era while demonstrating a maturity and emotional sophistication that is absolutely dazzling. Smith’s playing works as an odd spectral/tonal foil for Ware’s saxophone while Parker really makes his bass sing. A great trio record and for my money *the* group to take Ware – still the greatest tenorman of his generation – into the future. Highly recommended!
