All The Things I thought I Didn't Want
author: Mercedes Nicole
                            
Love the structure, tone and texture of this track. It hints of an African Tribal Village, of movement, of a journey...very rich...mellodic.

Wonderful, electic, soulful exchange of melody and conscious

Picked up this CD after hearing "history for an apology" on WEXP. Glad I did. Song after song, Paul Rucker and his players take you on a journey. Really enjoyed the seemingly random selection of melody, instruments and meter; but it all works. And Paul remains focused on the groove above all--my complaint of some other avant recordings. (Jazz is about groove, period--in my mind, anyway.) The best song is "lost years," which is interesting because the "song" is only the raptured, passionate voice of josephine howell. I can only describe what she does as a voice interpretation of a Coltrane jazz solo. Although she doesn't utter one actual "word," she tells a story that I believe you will be grateful for having heard--and will want to hear--over and over again.
