Album Notes & Community Reviews

Recorded in Paris during a pivotal era for expatriate American jazz musicians, this album captures the Texas tenor saxophonist exploring deep, avant-garde improvisation. Supported by a stellar rhythm section featuring Malachi Favors and Ed Blackwell, the sessions are defined by rhythmic agility and distinct, vocalized horn phrasing. It stands as a masterful, highly expressive entry in the legendary BYG Actuel catalog.
