Album Notes & Community Reviews

The acclaimed British pianist directed his trio through a highly abstract, rhythmically demanding session that pushed the limits of the traditional acoustic format. The recordings highlight incredibly telepathic interplay, utilizing dense clusters and rapid dynamic shifts completely detached from conventional swing or bop. It represents a vital, deeply intellectual touchstone in the evolution of European free jazz.
