Bass – Trevor Dunn
Drums – Jim Black
Andrew D'Angelo: alto saxophone, bass clarinet

Three big names of modern jazz : Andrew D'Angelo on sax, Trevor Dunn on bass and Jim Black on drums. When I first listened to the CD, a strong memory of the Thomas Chapin trio arose : a powerful sax trio, which often starts tracks with a strong riff-like vamp, as the kick-off for great improvizations, always with a strong sense of melody and rhythm, fierce, hard-hitting yet at times sentimental and romantic : in other words : a weird combination but it works. The three musicians have been working in various fields of jazz, always on the look-out for new adventures, new trials and opportunities to enlargen their own horizon, mixing styles and blending genres, and it's good to hear them in such a straight-ahead trio format, yet the amazing thing is that they kind of integrate the findings from their adventures into rock, avant-garde, balkan and electronic jazz in the acoustic music they bring here. - freejazzblog.org
