Cassandra Wilson - Days Aweigh
Label: JMT
Total time: 42:00
Bitrate: 320 kbps
The formative years of singer Cassandra Wilson's career found her associated with the M-Base Collective school of eccentric
funk. On this set of advanced originals (which also has versions of 'Let's Face the Music' and 'Some Other Time'), Wilson is the
lead voice in dense ensembles that include (on various cuts) cornetist Olu Dara, guitarist Jean-Paul Bourelly, trumpeter Graham
Haynes, and altoist Steve Coleman, along with a very active rhythm section. 'Some Other Time' is a change of pace, a duet with
pianist Rod Williams, but otherwise this is advanced free funk dance music. ~ Scott Yanow, AMG
