Listener Reviews & Comments
Two albums in, I've learned to recognise Brian Blade's very unique sound and as soon as I heard the first few bars of the first track on this CD, the first we've heard from him and his Fellowship Band since 2000, a beatific smile spread over my face. Some hoping for some sort of musical radical departure may be disappointed, feeling that this is just more of the same but I'm as happy as a lark with it. As always, Kurt Rosenwinkel's guitar seduced me in from the word go and I was swept away right until the very last note of the final track. More or less all the members of the Fellowship Band are present and correct: supporting Blade and his drums are Jon Cowherd on piano, pump organ, Moog & Wurlitzer; Rosenwinkel is on guitar of course; Myron Walden is on alto saxophone & bass clarinet; Melvin Butler on tenor saxophone and Chris Thomas is on bass. The only thing missing from the familiar mix is Dave Easley and his pedal steel guitar but it's a minor deficiency - if that's even the appropriate word to use - and goes practically unnoticed. I have no favourite tracks this time around (though the unusually thumping, driving beat of "Most Precious One (Prodigy)" is the one song that made me look up from what I was doing while I was listening); the entire album is intoxicatingly delicious. Highly recommended, as are Blade's other two recordings, 1998's Brian Blade Fellowship and 2000's Perceptual.
