Tenorman Charles Brackeen's third of three Silkheart CDs (recorded at the same session as Attainment) matches his powerful playing with cornetist Olu Dara, bassist Fred Hopkins, and drummer Andrew Cyrille. All of the Silkheart sets are worth picking up, but this one (due to its extra intensity and the five particularly strong Brackeen originals) gets a slight edge. Brackeen's passionate playing shows that free jazz was still very much alive (if underground) in the 1980s.(from AMG)

Tenor saxophonist Charles Brackeen is in ways a throwback to the 1960s. He sometimes builds off of childlike folk themes (like Albert Ayler), and Ornette Coleman's method of constantly improvising new melodies is also an influence. However, Brackeen's intense sound has a soul of its own, and his playing on the four lengthy originals (with strong contributions by bassist Fred Hopkins, drumer Andrew Cyrille and the underrated cornetist Olu Dara) is quite original. Intense yet fulfilling music which was recorded the same day as its companion album, Worshippers Come Nigh.(from AMG)

Hamiet Bluiett - Endangered Species

HAMIET BLUIETT - Endangered Species (India Navigation, 1976)

Hamiet Bluiett: baritone saxophone, flute
Olu Dara: trumpet
Jumma Santos: balafon
Junie Booth: bass
Phillip Wilson: drums

Here is the first Bluiett's record as a leader. A great record with three of the most powerful players from 70's: Bluiett, Dara and Wilson . The compositions are creative, the improvisations are energic, organic and adventurous. Beautiful sessions uploaded by an anonymous user which I thank again.
