One of the most underrated drummers to emerge from the turbulently exploratory 1960s, for the past 20 years Rashied Ali has been operating like an Art Blakey figure in terms of discovering and nurturing new talent.

CD Reviews

Hard Bop from the master of the Avant-garde

Charles Coutts | Aberdeen, Scotland | 11/04/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"The Rashied Ali Quintet has departed its usual 'free jazz' territory to serve-up some of the most exciting hard bop music that I've heard in years. The drummer is surrounded by an exceptional ensemble with brilliant solos supplied by Lawrence Clark on tenor and Jummaane Smith, trumpet. The surge of the music and the creativity of the solos reminds me of some of the best offerings that came from the famous Art Blakey's star-studded line-ups.

A great album and highly recommended.
