09.08.07 | Review of SPARK! in Midwest Record Recap
For those of you who love hanging out on the corner of art & jazz, these two
formidable hitters join forces again for a forward thinking new jazz date
that breaks ground in a lot of directions. Springing a subversive spiritual
element to their new jazz, this duo play off each other's textures and
talents in such a way that you don't mind being thought of as an art lover.
With Ehrlich's multi-wind instrument attack and Melford piano, each weaving
around the other, the effect is a mind blowing stunner that can't help but
take over wide open ears looking for music with bite. Hot stuff from pros
that know how to get it right.
