Alongside them, there are the great Brad Jones on bass and Matt Wilson fine on drums. Those two dune demonstrate inventiveness and hallucinations of a groove. As usual, Brad Jones and support of a dune remarkable accuracy. The breaks tempo launched by Wilson for their part create a unique emulation for musicians. We also welcome the space taken by the four men, their sense of tuned and recovery. No downtime during this high-flying musical time. Replay "Hear You Say" four after its release, and I measure all the success of a similar production. Well quenthousiastes critics have been rather timid in that naccordant 4 stars (Phil Freeman and Bruce Lindsay on AllMusic AllAboutJazz). Certainly, this is the contemporary jazz in what it has more traditional, but the strength of this music makes me say that lon holds an indispensable disc that should fit in the pantheon of the best productions "live" in the last five years. In addition, the innervated swing from end to end more than a delight, as risk taking are memorable. In the end, seven titles adding a total of 64 minutes.
Both blowers share the directory. Four Marty Ehrlich: "Portrait of Leroy Jenkins" (this tribute to one of the greatest jazz violinists death in 2007 begins with an absolute duet between Ray and Marty, before the rhythm section does not come to put his two cents and surprises, detours abound, like this huge shift and archi "groovy" taken to the 540), "The Lions Tanz", "The Git Go" (nod to the composition of Mal Waldron no doubt, but above all irresistible drive, driven by a rhythm atop the triple play of Brian Wilson and his swing is beautiful again, and Ray Anderson then suggests the possibilities of his instrument, to mute the squeal), "Hear You Say "(this final piece is a real fire and dartifice jazzeux memory, it was time that I Navais not heard such an exciting piece. A lissue the interpretation of the musicians laugh dailleurs, so the result has surprised them themselves! !!). Finally, we find three compositions signed by the trombonist "Hot Crab Pot" (ostinato on the powerful bassist, blowing the play while syncope), "My Wish" (here it comes dune ride dune unexpected tenderness, especially after the two first subjects who had set fire to the powder), and finally, "Alligatory Rhumba" with exciting contours. Inspired compositions and performed with panache, so. Their fervor and humor in every four are of course welcome. This is the winning combination of this unforgettable live!
