5.0 out of 5 stars Superb!!!
Just listen to the samples --- they speak for themselves - This CD is a trip and continues to grow as it goes along ~ This is what's happening now in Jazz. Check it out. Very Cool! --

1.0 out of 5 stars Too mainstream
I used to love Coleman's earlier, more unknown works. Stuff like, "Answering Machine messages" and "Ocean Sounds", the albums he recorded in his garage and sold out of the back of his car. This new album does have that same feel, but Coleman's music is being watered down by it's mass market appeal. Go back to being unheard of. Till then, I'll be...

I disagree. This is new music at it best, mixing the world's great musics in new and inventive ways. I think the lyricist is a nice touch, using a kind of slam poet/freestyle that is really hot. Also, if you list a dancer in your liner notes you know what's up.

As for Steve's playing, he and Osby are the new players. Everyone else is just copping Bird, Cannonball, and Trane licks.

Ralph Alessi (bad trumpet, BAD), Andy Milne (piano/keyboards), Reggie Washington (bass), Gene Lake (drums), Vijay Iyer (keyboards), Miya Masaoka (koto), Josh Jones (percussion),Ramesh Shotham (Indian percussion), Kokayi (lyricist), Yassir Chadly (vocals, percussion) and Laila (dance).
