Our Take

If we could package the sheer unadulterated chaos of 2020 into a musical album, it would undoubtedly be NELS CLINE SINGERS' latest offering, "Share The Wealth." This eclectic masterpiece is a sonic rollercoaster that takes the listener on a wild ride through genres, styles, and emotions.

From the opening track, "Segunda," it's clear that this is not your average jazz album. Nels Cline's virtuosic guitar work is on full display, weaving in and out of Chris Lightcap's pulsating basslines and Tom Rainey's frenetic drumming. It's a whirlwind of sound that is both exhilarating and disorienting in the best possible way.

But it's not just about the musicianship on display here. The album is also a commentary on our current socio-political landscape, with tracks like "Beam/Spiral" and "Stump The Panel" offering up biting critiques of wealth inequality and corporate greed. It's a bold move for a jazz album, but one that pays off in spades.

Overall, "Share The Wealth" is a challenging listen, but one that rewards the adventurous listener. It's a fearless exploration of sound and ideas that solidifies NELS CLINE SINGERS' reputation as one of the most innovative acts in contemporary jazz. So strap in, buckle up, and get ready for a musical journey like no other.
