If not for some inspired Nistico, out it would go. Why was it irritating? Tracey's Monkisms? The bass-drum team? Based on limited experience, I thought Themen was a reasonable player.

Based on limited experience, I thought Themen was a reasonable player. It's all wrong, except for Sal. It doesn't sound or feel like anything other than irritating. The time is in some unfriendly pocket (if in a pocket at all), the tones are not holistic, everything is OBVIOUS in a way that speaks of cluelessness about meaning, it's just very, very irritating to me. Just finished: Not irritating. Also not a lot of any number of other things as well, but not irritating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Kart Posted June 14, 2020 Report Share Posted June 14, 2020 Don't care for the trumpeter who's on a few tracks, but Foster and the rhythm section are slamming. Ned Goold delivers one of the worst performances I've ever heard. Personnel is not given, but I assume the pianist is Sacha Perry. I spent good money on this.

He's on the front cover of Q magazine, of all things, this week. Holding up a vinyl copy of Peter Brotzmann's Machine Gun. 2020's been a weird year.
