I finally picked this up yesterday and give it a couple listens. Very good stuff. This is my first time hearing Chris Potter and ... I'll just say that I need to listen more to get a better sense of his contribution. On first glance he does seem a bit dull, but I'm open to the notion that further listening with reveal more tact and complexity in his playing. It's wonderful to hear Moran play such subdued music, he can be such a lyrical player, something it's easy to forget on his leader dates, where I think his Andew Hill influence predominates. As far as Motian being undermiked, I disagree. I've heard recordings where he's way overmiked (Charlie Haden's Montreal Tapes comes to mind) and it doesn't suit him. I think it's his unique ability to dominate this music at such a volume.
