Just got back from the Chris Potter Quartet show at the Regattabar in Cambridge MA. Absolutely stunning. Larry Grenadier on bass, Nate Smith drums, David Verellus Piano. Very intense and full of energy. Larry grenadier is one of the most amazing bass players. Chris Potter - Unbelievable. If you get a chance to see them, don’t miss it!

Bookmark and Share Great review,brightsize. It might not be straight-ahead, but it’s great music and your review does it justice.

Bookmark and Share Nice review, bright size, but I’d hardly call this record straight-ahead. Yeah, it’s acoustic and, at least in some places, it swings, but that’s about as close to mainstream, straight-ahead jazz as it gets. The harmonies are certainly not, nor is the overall compositional construction , or the use of two pianists, one largely working with prepared piano, celeste and harmonium.

Bookmark and Share Potter is such a lyrical, yet damn powerful player. His solo live on Interval Waltz, and on the record was/is extraordinary.
