Yes, I am glad I ran across this being played at Axpona. I really like this style, reminds me of some of the Gill Evan's recordings from that era. Accessible, 'post-bop with ideas from the avant-garde that does not fall into any category.'

A favorite LP. I think I'll put this one on the turntable.
Good idea!
This particular album is new to me. Think I should look for the LP.
It's a jazz kind of afternoon. (when is it not ?)

I will gladly admit that in my pleasure to finally hear a good and genuine jazz quartet album again, I squeeze with solid dice. But then trumpeter Tore Johansen next to composing some great melodies really found the tone with bass veteran Steve Swallow, pianist Lars Jansson and drummer Anders Kjellberg. The latter with Harvey Mason's lace and Jarle Vespestad's sense of cunning details.
It starts so playfully and elegantly with Tore Johansen's title cut, while it all ends with Steve Swallow's unlikely gorgeous ballad Item # 7 a seven-minute-long gem where the musicians' joy of spending some great maid days in a studio in Bodø has really done their best to speed up the musical lyrics. IS is as rare as a traditional jazz album in simple and straightforward quartet format. There are no long, floating trumpets, untidy percussions or other modern fixes. This is just pure jazz, composed and recorded by someone who just wants you well.
( I think this means he liked it)

I think I'm going to have to get some Ike in the collection before too long. This is sweet.
