Album Notes & Community Reviews

Recorded in the late sixties but gaining newfound appreciation upon re-release, 'New Dance!' features the highly underrated saxophonist engaging in fearless, open-ended improvisation. Backed only by bass and drums, the stark, chordless trio setting allows his quirky, virtuosic flights to completely dominate the sonic space.
