The excitement of funk jazz, woven together with explosive brass and rhythms.
An ambitious work that fuses the ultra-high notes of the trumpet with a funk groove, with energy and structured arrangements that transcend the boundaries of jazz.
The trumpet's high notes cut through sharply, and the rhythm section surges forth with a passion. The brass section's heavy sound and funk-like bass line blend together to create overwhelming propulsion. The rhythms are sharp and the phrases are developed in a precise manner, creating a dense ensemble. Maynard Ferguson's trumpet sounds as if it cuts through the space, creating a dynamic sound. An energetic masterpiece that embodies the dynamism of '70s fusion.
