ghost of miles Posted November 25, 2003 Report Posted November 25, 2003 A title meant as a riposte to the terrible book by Eric Nisenson (RIP, BTW). Also featuring Gary Bartz & Billy Harper. I haven't heard Thompson's first two Africa/Brass recordings, but this one's sounding good in the headphones so far... Quote
JSngry Posted November 25, 2003 Report Posted November 25, 2003 Good stuff. Not quite what I was expecting/hoping for in terms of input from Bartz and Harper, but still good. Quote
jazzbo Posted November 25, 2003 Report Posted November 25, 2003 I think I have both of the early ones, and they are GOOD. Maybe better than GOOD. Going to have to look into this new one! Quote
ghost of miles Posted November 25, 2003 Author Report Posted November 25, 2003 Good stuff. Not quite what I was expecting/hoping for in terms of input from Bartz and Harper, but still good. Jim, are their contributions more straightahead than what you'd expect? I have to confess I haven't kept up with either's work in recent years... Quote
JSngry Posted November 26, 2003 Report Posted November 26, 2003 A little more restrained and a lot less frequent. But not cause for complaint. Quote
kdd Posted November 26, 2003 Report Posted November 26, 2003 Got this. OK at best to me. A couple of tracks stand out but the rest is kind of ho-hum. Bartz and Harper both sound good when they play. Quote
John L Posted December 2, 2003 Report Posted December 2, 2003 Got this. OK at best to me. A couple of tracks stand out but the rest is kind of ho-hum. Bartz and Harper both sound good when they play. That pretty much sums up the way that I feel about this one too. Quote
