Album Notes

This music is from a studio session that generated 17 tunes of which we chose 10 for this collection, Go Wake The Rooster. This is experimental jazz sporting a vast variety of influences and styles that make the music hard to describe. Sure it has E. E. Pointer's fabulous horn, and Allen McGinty's nimble bass, but the whole band creates a unique sound that you won't find in just any joint around town. To begin with, it is all improvisational, no charts, everything you hear is happening as it is being recorded. We know we're supposed to try and describe this music in such a way that you'll think, yeah, that's so Miles, or that was a little chunk of the Jazz Messengers, or that was ... . But, we just can't put it all in a box labeled and sent off to your ear. You will have to try it out. It is not for everyone. But you never know--have a listen... .
