Our Take

Swiss saxophonist Christoph Erb, Chicago-based pianist Jim Baker, and drummer Frank Rosaly join forces on their latest album "...Don't Buy Him A Parrot..." and it's a wild ride from start to finish.

Erb's saxophone skills are on full display, weaving in and out of Baker's intricate piano melodies with a sense of playful chaos. The dynamic between the two musicians is electric, with Baker's unpredictable chord changes keeping listeners on their toes.

Rosaly's drumming serves as the backbone of the album, providing a steady heartbeat for the experimental soundscape created by Erb and Baker. His rhythms are both driving and nuanced, adding a sense of urgency to the music.

The trio's chemistry is undeniable, with each musician feeding off the energy of the others to create something truly special. From the frenetic energy of tracks like "Parrot Party" to the haunting beauty of "Feathers in the Wind," "...Don't Buy Him A Parrot..." is a rollercoaster of emotions.

Overall, this album is a must-listen for fans of avant-garde jazz and experimental music. Erb, Baker, and Rosaly have created something truly unique and exciting, and it's a joy to experience their musical journey. Jam-packed with quirky charm and infectious energy, this album is a playful masterpiece that demands your attention.

Together, Erb, Baker, and Rosaly create a musical experience like no other, effortlessly blending free jazz, avant-garde, and experimental sounds into a mind-bending sonic cocktail that will leave you both exhilarated and slightly disoriented. Their live performances are an electrifying display of talent and creativity, with each member pushing the boundaries of their respective instruments to the absolute limit.
