Description
"Flaherty is a fabulous screamer and wailer, an inferno of sound, his sax the tool to put the world back on the right track one ruptured eardrum at a time." - ALL MUSIC GUIDE Saxophonist Paul Flaherty is New England's purveyor of the ecstatic jazz pulse. Until 2001, Flaherty had been viewed as a shadow on the fringe of underground jazz; for twenty years he remained exclusively in the great Northeast and recorded over a dozen incendiary group albums. Since forming the explosive, hyper-acclaimed duo with drummer Chris Corsano (Six Organs of Admittance, Sunburned Hand of the Man) five years ago, Flaherty's notoriety has risen in tandem with noted collaborations Dream/Aktion Unit (with Jim O'Rourke and Thurston Moore) and Cold Bleak Heat (with Greg Kelley and No Neck Blues Band's Matt Heyner). Whirl of Nothingness, Flaherty's second solo album, features eight pieces steeped in the theme of loss channeled through blasting improvisations that showcase his fabulous wailing and inferno of sound to stark bluesy melodies. In the slim canon of solo horn records, Whirl of Nothingness stands triumphantly strong and wholly distinct.
