Our Take

Don Ellis' latest album, "How Time Passes," is a wild and wacky journey through the world of jazz fusion. From start to finish, Ellis's innovative compositions and outstanding musicianship keep listeners on their toes, never quite sure where the music will take them next.

The album kicks off with the energetic and unpredictable track "Time Flies," setting the tone for the rest of the record. Ellis's trumpet playing is nothing short of electric, with each note crackling with energy and passion. The band's tight rhythm section provides the perfect foundation for Ellis to really let loose and showcase his virtuoso skills.

Throughout the album, Ellis explores a wide range of styles and influences, from Latin rhythms to free jazz experimentation. Each track is a sonic adventure, full of unexpected twists and turns that keep the listener engaged and excited.

Standout tracks include the funky and infectious "Tick Tock," which will have you tapping your foot and grooving along in no time. The title track, "How Time Passes," is a melancholic masterpiece, with Ellis' mournful trumpet weaving a haunting melody over a lush backdrop of strings and horns.

Overall, "How Time Passes" is a thrilling and exhilarating listen that showcases Don Ellis at the top of his game. Whether you're a jazz aficionado or just a casual listener looking for something a bit different, this album is sure to impress and delight. Don't let time pass you by without giving it a spin.
