WOW 🔥This album resonates with me on so many levels. The song "Hudson" by itself is so amazing. The covers are nice, but Hudson, Woodstock, & Peace Chant really stand out to me. I grew up in the Hudson Valley, Staatsburg to be exact. Although I moved away, and no longer consider NY my home, I'm endlessly grateful for growing up in such a wild beautiful place. No matter how far away I am, my heart is completely connected to those roots and that river! Can’t wait for more : ) freshpowmom
The interstellar jazz group's first record in 20 years carries their late leader's wide-reaching legacy across stunning new vistas. Bandcamp Album of the Day Nov 9, 2020
Ward's swirling, breezy sax feels very close and intimate - listening to it I pictured myself in a small basement room as the band played - but the 10 tongues paint a joyful and sophisticated urban fairytale that changes scene cinematically and builds to a satisfying finale. Tom Colquhoun
