Description
|
|
|
|
Holland and cohorts deliver a set of post-bop, Ornette Coleman–inspired charts that represent free jazz at its best. Tunes include the bluesy "World Protection Band" and the polyphonic groove of "Wight Waits for Weight." "The band charges ahead full force on the opener, Holland's own 'New One,' a 16-minute tour de force. After the initial up-tempo opening line, the band almost immediately heads for parts unknown in a brilliant free for all between the three horn players.... 'Vortex' also comes out swinging madly, the band suddenly dropping out for a pensive Holland solo.... Just as Dave brings the focus to a quiet point of sound, the band revs up, underscoring a jaw-dropping, frenetic Coleman solo.... After a tasty mallet drum solo by Smith … [comes] a through-composed passage that sounds like a cross between a Latin marching band and a section of Stravinsky's 'L'histoire du soldat'. Wonderful stuff."—Audiophile Audition
