The music on this set is almost free, but tied to guitarist
Scott Fields' themes and the mood of each piece. The interplay between the musicians is impressive, the music often rumbles menacingly, and it is consistently if disconcertingly unpredictable.
Fields is usually the lead voice, but
Marilyn Crispell is alert in her "backing" of him and the rhythm team of bassist
Hans Sturm and drummer
Hamid Drake keeps the music from ever being too comfortable. Although not for everyone, this set grows in interest with each listen. ~ Scott Yanow
