Since the 1970s, the California-born saxophonist David Murray has evolved into
a jazz-sax colossus for his tempestuously personal fusion of John Coltrane’s
and Albert Ayler’s methods, and plenty of swing-to-bop influence from Dexter
Gordon, Sonny Rollins and Ben Webster, too. Last year, he assembled this
powerful trio with pianist Geri Allen and drummer Terri Lyne Carrington, a
fascinating contrast of his own swerves from tonality to dissonance with the
more orthodox lyricism and timekeeping of his partners – notably in the
honking, ruggedly romantic Latin opener Mirror of Youth, the lovely gospel
ballad Barbara Allen, or the smoky Wayne Shorter dedication Samsara. But the
title track, with the trio augmented by bassist Charnett Moffett, trombonist
Craig Harris and trumpeter Wallace Roney, is a seething Ornette Coleman
dedication in which Carrington and Moffett perfectly catch the airborne groove
of a classic Coleman rhythm section. Elsewhere, Murray’s wildness and his
partners’ more formal methods don’t always entirely gel, but the trio’s
evolution will be intriguing to witness at the EFG London jazz festival on 19
November.
