(4 out of 5 stars)

"Joris Teepe shows that he has an open mind when composing. He does not settle into a certain style or groove, viewing instead a wide arc. Within his vision come the rearranging of a Dutch folk tune, the blues, bop sensibilities and a lot of freedom of expression. Teepe has players of high calibre to give vent to the music, which include five of his compositions, a Paul Simon tune and two standards. Chris Potter and Don Braden are perfect foils and brothers in harmony, undeniable testimony being seen in "Second Avenue Story" where their horns jab, probe, spar and entwine and then open up the vista for the others to jump in for a blistering encounter. "Chelsea Bridge" glows from a warm approach, swing being the main ingredient while "You Don't Know What Love Is" comes as a showcase for Teepe's harmonic conceptions and supple bass lines. The pulse of bop beats red hot on the title tune on which David Hazeltine contributes crisp, prancing lines and it all comes to a becoming end with a vigorous, melody happy "Up Jumped Spring". Not to mention Bruce Cox would be unfair. He not only keeps the pulse ticking with his drumming, he is a feeder with momentum!"
