专辑简介
Review
by Scott Yanow
Altoist Marion Brown's debut as a leader is a typical ESP free form blowout. He performs three numbers (two are quite lengthy) with either trumpeter Alan Shorter or tenor-saxophonist Bennie Maupin (who was at the beginning of his career), both Ronnie Boykins and Reggie Johnson on basses and drummer Rashied Ali. The fiery performances feature the musicians stretching themselves and playing with great intensity; at this early point Marion Brown was already recognizable.
A few willful misrepresentations, this ain't a free form blowout, the tunes are well in evidence and executed with the utmost care, very worthwhile they are too, the reason I bought this cd of dubious provenance was for the extra tune , Mephistopheles by alan shorter, which some will remember in its interpretation on his brother wayne’s mid sixties bluenote album “the all seeing eye” this is presumably an outtake which was left of the album originally for reasons of space.
alan shorter's tunes had the same brooding power, i love about some of his brother's plus just that little bit of extra turbulence.
