Our Take

Album Review: PRINCE LASHA / SONNY SIMMONS / CLIFFORD JORDAN / DON CHERRY - It Is Revealed

In the hallowed halls of avant-garde jazz, there are few names as revered as Prince Lasha, Sonny Simmons, Clifford Jordan, and Don Cherry. So when these four titans come together on "It Is Revealed," you know you're in for a wild ride.

The album kicks off with the frenetic energy of "Awakening," a cacophony of saxophones and horns that swirl together in a dizzying dance of sound. It's like being caught in a tornado of notes, each one more unpredictable than the last.

As the album progresses, we are treated to moments of blissful beauty, such as the haunting ballad "Reflections," where Lasha's flute floats delicately over a sea of shimmering cymbals. It's a moment of pure transcendence that reminds us why these musicians are considered masters of their craft.

But don't let the moments of serenity fool you - this album is not for the faint of heart. Tracks like "Chaos," with its discordant melodies and free-form improvisation, will leave your head spinning in the best possible way.

Overall, "It Is Revealed" is a tour de force of avant-garde jazz that showcases the brilliance of these four musicians. It's a challenging listen, to be sure, but for those willing to dive headfirst into the chaotic beauty of it all, the rewards are endless. Trust us, you won't regret it.
