Still going strong,
By bmused "bmused123" (Buffalo, NY USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Live in New York (Audio CD)
This album marked the first time Archie Shepp and Roswell Rudd had recorded together since their string of classic "New Thing" recordings under Shepp's leadership in the '60s. This time around, Rudd seems to have more say in the musical and songwriting direction and contributes several of his originals to the set. Shepp's tenor, while not as powerful as it was 30 or 40 years ago, still has a distinctive tone and he has interesting things to say with it. Instead of recreating the free jazz experiments of their '60s shows, the set consists of more well-structured, melodic songs. The two leaders are joined by fellow jazz legends Andrew Cyrille and Reggie Workman, both veterans of the free jazz scene. Anyone with an interest in bluesy jazz or curious to listen to what Shepp and Rudd have been up to over the last decade should find this a rewarding CD.

Sarà l'età, sarà che i tempi di "Free Jazz / Black Power" sono passati da un pezzo, sarà il mal di schiena che avanza. Fatto sta che Archie Shepp e Rosewell Rudd si sono proprio rammolliti. Quando mio figlio ha portato a casa il cd che riunisce, dopo più di trent'anni, i due vecchi alfieri della New Thing non volevo proprio credere alle mie orecchie. Erano proprio loro? Meglio non pensarci, rispolverare un loro vecchio disco in vinile (Freedom del 1967), commuovermi un poco e gettare quest'ultima triste incisione nel cestino dell'immondizia.Il padre di Arthur Cravan |
