This album’s title track is stripped down improvisation. It’s highlighted by out-front drums, which are particularly hard-hitting. The bass line wanders nicely while the saxophone lead is fast, furious and echoed. “Giving It,” however, is entirely different. This piece is led by muted trumpet and backed by a rhythmically repeated-note bass groove. It has a kind of late night, groggy feel to it. This work also stands out from the rest for its spoken word part. When drums finally come in, they are used sparingly, yet appropriately. It also has an overall improvised vibe.
