Free Music Notes for Time and Time Again
Free Music Review: Good album, but was expecting something a little better
Hit: 4 Stars
I'm going to try and keep this review short.
I have listened to this album several times, but I think this lacks the heartbreaking beauty of their previous album "I Have The Room Above Her." That album was really one of the best jazz trio albums I've ever heard well next to Bill Evans Trio - "You Must Believe In Spring."
Having said that, this album hasn't grown on me the way their previous release has. Another person mentioned the JMT/Winter and Winter releases and they are all great in particular the "On Broadway" series. Great modern takes on jazz standards.
The music on this album is almost in the same vein as "I Have The Room Above Her," but with a little bit emphasis on pure gorgeous beauty. I know they're just expanding on their concept, but I think they could've done so much better.
All the musicians are amazing and I'm all really big fans of: Paul Motian is the master of time and space. He never fails to display his own distinctive drumming style. Bill Frisell, who's one of my biggest influences, is one of the true innovators of jazz guitar. He has totally opened up a new sonic world to the masses. Frisell is also a virtuoso of texture. He always plays so tastefully, no notes are wasted. For Frisell, it's not about speed, it's about the music. Joe Lovano is an amazing saxophonist. I first heard him on Paul Motian's first album "Psalm" and then I was impressed with him, then I heard him on "It Shouldn've Happened A Long Time Ago" and was completely floored by his sound, technique, and how much feeling he puts into every note he plays. One of the true great saxophonist of our time.
"Time And Time Again" is not a bad album. The reason I'm giving it four stars is because I've much better music from this trio. I recommend this album if you like Motian's work with Frisell and Lovano.
Time and Time Again Poster
You could call the austere, resonating sounds laid down by drummer Paul Motian, guitarist Bill Frisell and saxophonist Joe Lovano chamber jazz. But while that would speak to the refinement of this long-standing trio, it would miss the free, open-ended nature of their collaboration. You get the feeling if they weren't in the business of making a recording, their three-way conversations would keep going and going. Dominated by Motian compositions, this sequel to their fine 2004 album, I Have the Room Above Her, is frequently centered by Lovano's artfully restrained tenor, buoyed by Frisell's trademark roots-inflected chordings and prodded by Motian's ever-shifting patterns. But the artists exchange those roles at will, resulting in melodies that can come at you from any angle and textures that constantly renew themselves. A diaphonous reading of Thelonious Monk's "Light Blue" and a plummy reading of Rodgers & Hammerstein's "This Nearly Was Mine" (from South Pacific) raise the melodic ante while maintaining the overall feeling of the album. --Lloyd SachsOne of the great bands of modern jazz, Paul Motian, Bill Frisell and Joe Lovano have been recording together since 1981. Ever since, and despite skyrocketing careers, the three musicians have always set aside time to continue their trio collaboration.
Paul Motian's last two albums on ECM have been widely lauded by press and fans alike. 2005's I Have The Room Above Her was Motian, Frisell, Lovano's last outing, and Time and Time Again has been eagerly-awaited since. The new record features compositions by Motian and Lovano, plus a tune from Thelonious Monk and the Rodgers and Hammerstein classic "This Nearly Was Mine" from South Pacific.
