Clifford Thornton
's only
Actuel
date as a leader is, like many of the others in this
BYG
series, an all-star blowing session highly indicative of the times. For some, it will be difficult to tell whether taking credit for composing these pieces is a lost cause. This is some very free music and, save for a handful of scored passages, almost wholly improvised. A number of the scene's top players make appearances here in different groups. On the large ensemble pieces
Thornton
is joined by
Grachan Moncur III
,
Archie Shepp
(on soprano sax),
Arthur Jones
Dave Burrell
Beb Guerin
Earl Freeman
, and
Sunny Murray
. Otherwise,
"Brotherhood,"
a piece for quintet, is performed by
Jones
Guerin
Freeman
, and this time, drummer
Claude Delcloo
, while on
"Speak With Your Echo"
only the two bassists (
and
) accompany
's cornet. This piece in particular is especially enjoyable and reminiscent perhaps of
' fantastic
ballad
"Brother B,"
from his own
LP,
Scorpio
. At times the ensemble pieces sound like a Pan-African
Morton Feldman
, and at others, hazy,
psychedelic
post bop
. Fans of brooding and contemplative improvised music will find a great deal to enjoy here. In fact, many would argue that this is the best LP under
's leadership. ~ Brandon Burke
