Music reviews of Dimensions And Extensions

Music Review: GREAT
Rating: 5 Stars

This album mixes big band, hard-bop and the avant-gaurde. Sam Rivers mixes the styles quite effectively here.

Most of the tracks here have beginnings--heads, in jazz terms-that run through a lot of chords and substitutions quickly. The players are then off to the races, and the improvosation skill of these soloists in excellent. They never fall into cleches-and neither does the rhythm section-so this music always sounds fresh.

Like many of the other great Blue Note 60s jazz records-Destination Out by Jackie McClean or Evolution by Grechan Moncour--this bypasses the whole mainstreem/out jazz war aside and uses all elements of the music to make a great record.

Critics and marketing people worry about style labals. Great musicians never do.
