Music reviews of Wait Till You See Her
Music Review: Gentle But Intense
Rating: 4 Stars
The music on Wait Till You See Her is gentle but intense. Guitarist Abercrombie's group this time around comprises Mark Feldman on violin, Thomas Morgan on bass, and Joey Baron on drums. The music sounds cooperative, with nobody trying to steal the spotlight.
That is not to say there is no energy in this outing; rather, the energy that is here is of the slow, simmering variety. This is music of a definite mood, and to really enjoy listening to this CD, you have to be in a certain mood, or else the music will just seem to lack energy and inspiration. This group communicates by insinuation, not declaration, meaning that at times, the music can seem to simply meander. Still, if you are in the right (mellow but not passive) mood, chances are that this music will warm you with its slow, even heat and gentle light.
Abercrombie noodles creatively, Feldman weaves spell after spell, while Morgan strums and plucks with tasteful restraint. This is the most subtly I have ever heard Joey Baron play -- he was apparently in just the right mood for this music, complementing his fellow musicians with a deft touch. Although at times I find myself wishing for a bit more energy and contrast in this recording, I must conclude by pointing out that there is much here to admire and enjoy.

Description of Wait Till You See Her
The Abercrombie Quartet has become one of the most widely-admired groups in contemporary jazz. It is both a deeply swinging group and an adventurous one - with a range that can encompass everything from standards to bebop to free play to chamber music or raga-esque excursions. The quartet extends the jazz tradition yet there is a consistent warmth and humanity to the sound, always evident in the harmonic and melodic material that John writes for the group. The quartet has been the primary focus of Abercrombie's work for a decade, and Wait Till You See Her is the fourth disc from the band. Interplay between Abercrombie, Feldman and Baron is given a different inflection this time around by the input of a remarkable young bass player, Thomas Morgan (28), whose resumé already includes work with Steve Coleman, Paul Motian, Masubumi Kikuchi, and whose agility and deep, rooted musicality is exceptional.Jazz CDs
