Saw him twice: in a fantastic quintet with Paquito D'Rivera and with the Dizzy Gillespie United Nations Orchestra. Derek Humble? Jimmy Deuchar Dexter sounds cool. Ahem, yes. Derek Humble.

Rabshakeh Posted August 24, 2021 Report Share Posted August 24, 2021 Herbie Hancock - Sound System (Columbia, 1984) Bizarrely, I see that Toshinori Kondo and Hamid Drake are on this record. It's a shame that Brötzmann wasn't available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HutchFan Posted August 24, 2021 Report Share Posted August 24, 2021 12 hours ago, T.D. said: After a couple of spins, I like this and am happy with the purchase. General comments: sound quality excellent IMO, better than expected. Playing time is short, about 40 minutes divided almost equally into two tracks, Questions and Answers-Epilog. Specifics: Questions is rather "outside" (far more so than I've previously heard from Cowell), more percussive and atonal, more in Burrell's style. Answers-Epilog more accessible, less aggressively avant-garde (though there's some strumming of piano strings, for instance), more recognizably features Cowell's voice (or how I perceive same). Questions took 3 listens (1 on Youtube, 2 at home) to get my head around it, first hearing was rough but now I enjoy the piece. Overall: probably depends on your opinion of piano duos. I don't own many recordings in the genre, but consider this a very good one. Not essential, but worthwhile if you dig Stanley Cowell (I'm not sufficiently familiar with Dave Burrell's work to venture an analogous statement). If in doubt, a prior release of the album is on Youtube. Thank you, T.D.! NP: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I often think when listening to improv like this that it's much better in the flesh. I must have hundreds of albums that sound like this in some way. I can see why the reviewer would score it highly maybe not me, today. It's very listenable, don't get me wrong. Trombone and percussionist are good and new to me. Three/Three and half stars, so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
