Description
Composer/trumpeter Mantler offers a review of his career (so far), a personal `best-of' that goes all the way back to 1968 and traces his path from the Jazz Composer's Orchestra onwards, though his highly personal body of work on JCOA, WATT and ECM which includes many settings of literary texts and juxtaposing of players from the worlds of jazz, classical music and rock. It's good to be reminded of the extraordinary line-ups Mantler has assembled over the years. Drummers here, for instance, range from Tony Williams and Jack DeJohnette to Pink Floyd's Nick Mason. Singers include Jack Bruce, Marianne Faithfull, Robert Wyatt, Kevin Coyne. Don Cherry can be heard on trumpet, and Pharoah Sanders raises the roof with ecstatic tenor sax. Music includes tracks from 'The Jazz Composer's Orchestra', 'The Hapless Child', 'Live', 'Movies', 'Alien', 'Many Have No Speech', 'Folly Seeing All This', 'Hide and Seek' and more.
