Description
Veteran saxophonist/composer Rob Reddy launches his Reddy Music
label with A Hundred Jumping Devils (Reddy Music RED- 001), the
debut release from his new sextet, Rob Reddy's Gift Horse. The group explores a hauntingly eclectic mix of Reddy originals inspired by hymns, processionals, threnodies, ballads, sambas and more.
From the liner notes by journalist/author Howard Mandel:
"One might be reminded of Ornette Coleman's loose unisons, Henry
Threadgill's circusy spins, Frank Zappa's angularities (during
"Procession," for instance), headstrong early jazz or the Master
Musicians of Joujouka meeting Weather Report (on "Hundred Devils"
itself, where Reddy takes up the soprano sax, perhaps in honor but not
imitation of Wayne Shorter). Such references only go so far, each of
Reddy's pieces, whether expansive at 11 minutes or brief at one, being
distinctly original...you will recognize this as serious (but never
didactic) work, freshly conceived and brilliantly realized by fully
engaged collaborators, because it sounds so good, unusual and true."
Rob Reddy's Gift Horse features Mark Taylor (French horn), Charles
Burnham (violin), Brandon Ross (acoustic and electric guitars), Dom
Richards (double bass) and Mino Cinelu (percussion).
