Jeb Bishop, trombone, compositions
Russ Johnson, trumpet
Frank Rosaly, drums
Jason Roebke, bass
Recorded live at the "soft re-opening" of the Hungry Brain, Chicago, on September 20, 2015.
From a review in the NYC Jazz Record, April 2020:
"On Re-Collect, [Bishop] leads his impressive pianoless Flex Quartet through six original compositions in what is a compelling, at times even thrilling, performance. The lengthy pieces take full advantage of a highly compatible quartet in which trumpeter Russ Johnson acts as a perfect foil to Bishop’s gruff, broad swatches of sound while bassist Jason Roebke and drummer Frank Rosaly diligently undergird the horns with intense, time-less structures. [...] The playing is strong throughout, without a weak link, Bishop in the lead but, unquestionably, Johnson’s strong blowing and the tight rhythm section contributing to the album’s success."

Simply amazing to hear a new album with Wadada and Ewart!! ...And Reed rounds out this trio beautifully.
Just gave it my first spin. Absolutely magical. jeffrey maurer
After a precision liftoff in Tabasco and setting a course to travel the space ways from planet to planet, the album peels away through a wormhole just past Saturn in the eponymous track Mayan Space Station to journey through time and space in Canyons of Light. eric F

I had the pleasure of meeting Henry and spending an evening with his circle at the 2024 Big Ears Festival. The spirit of that gathering was as beautiful as this music. Very grateful for Poof and all that has preceded it and come after. walkerkevinf
