The Spirit of ThingsDavid Schnitter (Tenor Saxophone), Dominic Duval (Bass), Newman Taylor Baker (Drums)David Schnitter returns and, quite frankly, is back in top form. Reunited with bassist Dominic Duval (with whom he recorded in 1995), this is David’s first ever trio recording. In addition to bringing renewed life to his recording documentation, this session brings new life to some old standards.Catalog Number: CIMP Records 333
SanctuaryBobby Few (Piano), Hilliard Greene (Bass), Newman Taylor Baker (Drums), Avram Fefer (Saxophone)Messrs. Few and Fefer have been collaborating since the mid 1990's but this is the first time they have recorded in Quartet and the results are strong. As Avram Fefer writes, "…a great couple days… a great piano… stimulating company." Bobby Few has been on the scene since his Ayler days of the 1960's and he represents some of the best of the classic Free period. Avram Fefer began to make a name for himself among musicians in the 1990's; he represents the rich future of this music. Here is a finished work for the discriminate and mature listener. Recorded May 7, 2005.Catalog Number: CIMP 305
The Drum is Honor EnoughPatrick Brennan (Alto Sax), Steve Swell (Trombone), Hill Greene (Bass), Newman Taylor Baker (Drums)Listening to Patrick Brennan's music is a bit like looking at a bowl that has been shattered and reassembled but whose fit isn't quite right?you know what it is when looking at it, but it requires some reassessment to take it all in. Extensive Artist and Producer Notes may take you one listen just to get through, another listen to digest, but by the third listen the joy and genius of this concert should be evident. A valuable addition to this veteran's slight but growing discography. Recorded February 17 & 18, 2004.Catalog Number: CIMP 273
Stepping Around the GiantCarl Grubbs (Alto Saxophone), Odean Pope (Tenor Saxophone), Chris Sullivan (Bass), Newman Taylor Baker (Drums)The liner notes tell the whole story about this date. Suffice it to say, those who have been waiting 30 years to hear the promise of Carl Grubbs to be met will have to look no further than this emotionally charged session. And if you're an Odean Pope fan, this is cause for a double amen. This was a very special occasion for all involved and it translates to the listener. Recorded July 30 & 31, 2002.
