this one is a gimme for Hornsby's jumpstart chops which makes for a devastating affair with jer and the guys lockin' in.

Laconic and textural, devils hang loose. Chasms of endless spirals of blank fear only to be boingy wackjob cyberjazz, menacing, for OG 90's heads

High spirited and activated septet playing. Lengthy tonal solo and manic 7/4 takeoff

Blazing steamroller, Hornsby, flutterbird PITB. Elegant, direct, emblematic of the late style.

it's 31 minutes and much of it, rather than just straight up zaniness, is going for a drone sound art thing. rich resonant tones and blissfully self-contained. when cyberjazz does emerge it's moody and frothy.

Just wonderful, luscious vocals, ascendant lead work, spider web coda.
