Reviews ~~~~~~~ By Stephen Graham https://www.marlbank.net/posts/paul-dunmall-ensemble-it-s-a-matter-of-fact-discus [...] On It's a Matter of Fact where Dunmall in a highly arranged approach eschews the anarchy of some elements of the free sphere to place his sax in a kaleidoscopic blend with Martin Archer, Charlotte Keefe and Richard Foote in the horn section - and Julie Tippetts' voice is the real magnetic and super-wild element weaving in and out marvellously stealing the show at every turn. The drummer here who steers the sound so well is Jim Bashford who has been tremendous in recent years with Xhosa Cole (as has bassist James Owston - the pair are on K(no)w Them, K(no)w Us). Steve Saunders' electric guitar is less obvious in the turmoil of rhythms. It's A Matter of Fact is best when it is at its most raucous as on the brassy push and pull of 'Don't Ask Why' and next track in the lashing together of 'Latu' / 'Reunion' when Tippetts goes even more operatic than elsewhere. An extremely satisfying release on so many levels it's one of the best UK originated albums of 2023 so far. Final word look in as you listen hard because the crisp and highly graphic cover art, so close-your-eyes woeful on many other clangers in the idiom in existence out there, is also ace. -- By Discus Music https://www.discus-music.org/cp-catalogue/148-paul-dunnall/ By Chris Baber https://jazzviews.net/paul-dunmall-ensemble-its-a-matter-of-fact/
