Recorded in early '80s LA with a tight sextet including Gary Bias and Sabir Matteen - long, exploratory tracks that soar without ever going too far outside
Lyrical and righteous in equal measure, with a cohesiveness that rivals Tapscott's larger ensemble recordings at a leaner, more focused scale
For fans of: Horace Tapscott, Bobby Bradford, Charles Mingus, Wadada Leo Smith
A great group recording from pianist Horace Tapscott - recorded in LA in the early 80s, but done with all the righteousness and spirituality of his earlier albums! Tracks are long and exploratory, but also relatively lyrical too - stretching out with a style that's never too "outside," and which has Horace and the group really soaring to the heavens on the best moments. The group here is a sextet - with the great Gary Bias on alto and soprano saxophone, plus Sabir Matteen on tenor, Reggie Bullen on trumpet, Roberto Miguel Miranda on bass, and Everett Brown on drums and percussion - all working with a cohesiveness that reminds us of some of Tapscott's larger group recordings, but with a cleaner, leaner kind of feel. Titles include "Lately's Solo," "Dial 'B' For Barbra," and "Dem' Folks."
