Although Totally Spinning came out in 2006, it was recorded back in 1996. Rova, famous as being an avant-garde saxophone quartet, performs eight originals (all but Fred Frith's "Kick It" came from the band) and plays with surprising lyricism, often emphasizing strong melodies and catchy ensemble work. The improvising is advanced, emotional, and sophisticated with baritonist Jon Raskin generally taking honors. This is one of Rova's more accessible projects, although the music certainly has its adventurous and passionate moments. Recommended.
