Album Notes & Community Reviews

Another crucial dispatch from the ESP-Disk catalog, 'Frank Wright Trio' captures the tenor saxophonist's searing, fiercely uncompromising approach to the 'New Thing'. Backed by Henry Grimes on bass and Tom Price on drums, Wright unleashes torrential, overblown squawks and relentless, manic energy. The album eschews melody entirely in favor of visceral, ecstatic sonic expression.
