By John Gilbert
This album is difficult to classify as to genre. It is not jazz as we
know it, as it lacks the swinging quality of the straight ahead mode,
however, the players are first rate.
"Three Flights Down" is a flight of fancy for Tallitsch as he solos in
the fast lane.
He shows dexterity and the ability to maneuver over his horn in fine
style.
I was not able to do this recording justice as it is not in my fund of
expertise, as it were. This album is one that the proponents of 'free
jazz' and esoterica will appreciate.
It is apparent that these musicians are of the highest quality in the
message they are presenting.
