Spring Heel Jack & Wadada Leo Smith – The Sweetness of the Water [LP]

"With John Edwards, Mark Sanders and — reunited with the legendary AACM trumpeter for the first time since Company 7 in 1978 — Evan Parker.

The interventions of Spring Heel Jack — sly repetitions, uncanny intrusions of feedback and melody, expansive organ chorales — subtly transform the proceedings, focusing with microscopic precision on the dramatic power and lyrical poise of their collaborators and throwing the sonic complexities of the ensemble into vivid contrast."
