Synopsis

Album Description

Idaho-based saxophonist Brent Jensen collaborates with long-time Seattle friends drummer John Bishop, bassist Jeff Johnson and pianist Bill Anschell on his 5th recording for Origin Records. From the freewheeling improvised Punt to Anschell's extremely melodic title cut, the group explores different avenues of modern jazz while always maintaining their dynamic and cohesive group aesthetic. Other selections include Anschell's creative reworkings of Birk's Works and Sweet and Lovely, standards such as Beatrice and Alone Together, and originals by Johnson and Anschell.

CD Reviews

Jensen does it again

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Stanley Crouch says that it takes true courage to perform jazz in this day because you will never be as succesful as the p diddys and madonnas of the world, and i believe that Brent Jensen shows that courage. having been blown away by Brent's last few albums, I had high hopes for this disc as well. when Brent handed me this disc a few weeks ago, I was elated that I was going to be one of the first people to hear it and when i popped it into my CD player (and later my IPOD) every track on it blew me away, from his "coltrane" like playing on "EJ" (of course Jensen's soprano tone is much warmer than Coltrane's) to the piano sax duet of "Alone Together" and the effortless improvisations that fill the disc from all the performers, this is one disc for the world to hear."
