专辑简介
Legendary bassist Reggie Workman steps out front on Summit Conference to lead an all-star ensemble. The Philadelphia native who came to prominence with John Coltrane and who has backed a virtual who's who of jazz for the past 30 years is joined on Summit Conference by two generations of the avant-garde elite: Sam Rivers and Andrew Hill are musically matched with Julian Priester and Pheeroan akLaff. This evocative recording never stops burning and never stops exploring.
"Summit Conference" was a manifestation of my dream to perform with artists who have backgrounds and experience similar to my own, musicians who are exploring the same plane of artistic thought," says bassist Reggie Workman. "I wanted to create a recording deeply rooted in our history and evolution, yet also truly futuristic."
For his 1994 Postcards debut, Workman assembled a group of musical heavyweights, including Sam Rivers on tenor and soprano sax and on flute, Andrew Hill on piano, Julian Priester on trombone, and Pheeroan akLaff on drums. He puts them through their paces in a power set that never stops burning and never stops exploring. "It is a true summit conference," he explains. "The CD has the musical mark of my personal experience and direction, but in no way stifles or compromises the wonderful musical abilities and directions of the individual participants."
