Album Review
What if Miles Davis had decided to stick with the music of the Bitches Brew/Cellar Door period, circa 1969-1970, and develop within that genre rather than continuing to move in other directions? Perhaps his music would have sounded like Alan Pasqua's The Anti Social Club. The grooves and basslines on the seven originals are reminiscent of Davis' music of the era although the updated electronics, the individual voices, and the spirit of this group differ. Keyboardist Alan Pasqua (a former member of Tony Williams' Lifetime) sounds quite at home in the early-'70s funk/fusion setting, trumpeter Ambrose Akinmusire is a bright new voice on his instrument, and each of the musicians makes strong contributions. While there are solos, the "accompaniment" is so active that most of the music sounds like explosive ensembles. Fans of Miles Davis' music of his early electronics period will find this set to be a brilliant extension on Davis' ideas, and a fresh way of playing fusion. Highly recommended.
Customer Reviews
pasqua does fusion
Alan Pasqua's other cds are wonderful and worth buying if you like Bill Evans, Keith Jarrett. Its great to hear a pianist have dynamic range and ideas. This one is much different and seems to connect back to Rhodes pianos and some fusion. Not brash, just differnt and emminently a terrific listen.
Wicked Great
I have listened to Alan Pasqua's piano pieces and have watched a DVD with him and 3 other cats doing Fusion but this is beyond my musical comprehension. Teriffic performances that are not overdone in any measure of the peices. In other words, take Miles Davis fundamentals and play a keyboard with a wah wah...
What a Joy...!!!
It's fantastic to stumble on to this, from one of jazz-rocks great unsung masters!
