This is the first modern Steve Swallow I purchased, and since then I have had to go out and by a whole bunch more. He is a truly swinging bass player who gets a classic walking sound (and not just walking, of course) on an electric bass. The tunes on this and his other recent albums are often new heads on standard changes, and they're very hip. The players are unbelievable--Chris Potter (!) on sax, Barry Reis on trumpet, Mick Goodrick on guitar and Adam Nussbaum on … mehrbass. The album is live, and it feels very energetic. I love this album, especially the tune "Reinventing the Wheel." If you take my advice and purchase this album, then you should also check out "Deconstructed," "Real Book" and "Damaged in Transit." This is great stuff! weniger
