Editorial Reviews
Jazz Times
"JFJO burns with a quiet intensity…the musicians play with coiled looseness, improvising with quicksilver, deliberate force…the tension produced is exhilarating."
Product Description
Recorded in collaboration with acclaimed record producer, Joel Dorn, Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey’s The Sameness of Difference is a living, breathing, pulsating testament to the 12 years that the trio has spent together. It is unquestionably the Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey's piece de resistance—a post-modern jazz masterwork. Throughout the album, the band explores their influences, which stretch from cutting edge indie rock to experimental electronic music to classic pop, all the while rooted in an obsession with the modern jazz canon. They offer interpretations of music by Bjork, The Flaming Lips, Charles Mingus, Neil Young, Brian Wilson, Dave Brubeck, The Beatles and Jimi Hendrix. Their own material is also well represented, as original compositions, "Santiago," "The Maestro," "Halliburton Breakdown," "Slow Breath, Silent Mind" and "Davey's Purple Powerline" are etched in stone for the first time ever in the studio. The Sameness of Difference was recorded at Sear Sound in New York City. They tracked the album's entire repertoire in one marathon session. As always, it was the group's complete and utter commitment to improvisation and creating in the moment that served as their most reliable muse. And it's in the lineage and spirit of the countless classic jazz records that were recorded in a day's time that The Sameness of Difference resides. The Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey performed over 100 dates in 2005, including a tour as the opening act for Les Claypool, appearances at high profile festivals such as the JVC Jazz Festival, High Sierra Festival, 10,000 Lakes Festival and the Iowa City Jazz Festival and numerous headline shows from New York City to San Francisco. They were also voted the No. 2 "Rising Star Electric Jazz Group" in DownBeat’s 2005 Critics Poll. They recently made their concert debuts in South America and Europe.
