Our Take

The latest offering from the legendary Art Ensemble of Chicago, "Reese and the Smooth Ones," is a whimsical journey through the minds of some of the most innovative musicians in jazz history. This album is a delightful fusion of avant-garde jazz, funk, and soul, with a touch of Afro-Cuban rhythms thrown in for good measure. The opening track, "Smooth as Butter," sets the tone for the entire album with its infectious grooves and intricate instrumentation. The band effortlessly weaves in and out of complex time signatures, creating a sonic tapestry that is both challenging and rewarding for the listener. One of the standout tracks on the album is "Funky Reese," a high-energy funk anthem that will have you tapping your toes and bobbing your head in no time. The band's tight rhythms and bold brass sections give this track a playful, almost mischievous vibe that is impossible to resist. Overall, "Reese and the Smooth Ones" is a testament to the Art Ensemble of Chicago's enduring creativity and musicianship. This is a must-listen for any fan of jazz or experimental music, and a reminder of why this band continues to be a force to be reckoned with in the industry. So sit back, relax, and let the smooth sounds of the Art Ensemble of Chicago wash over you. You won't be disappointed.
