Our Take

HENRY THREADGILL's latest release, "Dirt... And More Dirt," is a whimsical journey through the eclectic mind of this musical mastermind. Mixing jazz, avant-garde, and a hint of funk, Threadgill creates a sonic landscape that is as unpredictable as it is captivating.

From the opening track, "Mud Puddle," Threadgill lures listeners in with his distinct blend of saxophone and flute melodies, weaving in and out of intricate rhythms that keep you on your toes. It's like a musical maze, with each twist and turn revealing a new layer of sonic delight.

Tracks like "Dirty Boots" and "Mud Bath" showcase Threadgill's ability to blend complex harmonies with infectious grooves, creating a sound that is both cerebral and danceable. It's like a musical crossword puzzle that challenges the mind while tantalising the ears.

But it's on the closing track, "Filthy Rich," where Threadgill truly shines. With its haunting melodies and pulsating rhythms, this track is a journey through the dark and dirty corners of the mind, leaving listeners breathless and begging for more.

In conclusion, "Dirt... And More Dirt" is a masterclass in musical innovation that showcases Threadgill's unparalleled talent and creativity. It's a must-listen for any music lover looking to expand their sonic horizons. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
