The music on this "M-Base" recording, despite the difference in instrumentation, does not sound radically different than Ornette Coleman's harmelodic music of the 1980s. Altoist Steve Coleman is the lead voice throughout most of his originals and his solo style (often relying heavily on whole-tone runs and unexpected interval jumps) is intriguing, but it would be surprising if his rhythm section did not get bored playing the funky (although eccentric) rhythms after awhile. Two tunes include angry raps that lower the quality of the record. Steve Coleman's CD is obviously not "The Resurrection of Creative Black Civilization" (its immodest subtitle) for how can one resurrect something that has never died? However it does contain plenty of creative (if disturbing) improvisations.
