Our Take

Ah, George Russell Sextet, the mastermind behind The Outer View (+1 Bonus Track). This album is a rollercoaster of jazz fusion excellence that will have you grooving from start to finish. From the funky basslines to the blistering sax solos, every track on this record is a testament to Russell's talent and innovation.

The title track, "The Outer View," is a cosmic journey through time and space, with its swirling melodies and hypnotic rhythms pulling you deeper into the music with each passing minute. And just when you think things couldn't get any better, the bonus track hits you like a sonic punch to the gut, leaving you begging for more.

But what really sets this album apart is Russell's ability to blend genres and push the boundaries of traditional jazz. Tracks like "Dementia," with its haunting piano chords and frenetic drumming, showcase Russell's willingness to take risks and explore new sonic territories.

In conclusion, The Outer View (+1 Bonus Track) is a mesmerising album that proves Russell is a force to be reckoned with in the world of jazz. So grab yourself a glass of wine, sit back, and let the music wash over you. You won't be disappointed.
