Recorded live at The Knitting Factory, New York, New York on March 10-11, 2002. Includes liner notes Bill Milkowski.

Bop snobs love to lump all avant-garde jazz together and claim that all of it is mindless screaming, but the people who make such claims haven't done their homework. Most of them wouldn't know Cecil Taylor from Horace Tapscott, nor would they be able to tell the Art Ensemble of Chicago from Ornette Coleman & Prime Time. The point is that there are many different shades of avant-garde. There is extreme avant-garde (Charles Gayle), and there are mildly avant-garde outfits such as the Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey. Like the group's previous work, All Is One: Live in New York City favors an inside/outside approach (more inside than outside) and offers an eccentric blend of jazz, funk, and rock. This CD documents a two-day appearance at the Knitting Factory -- one of New York's top venues for avant-garde jazz -- in March 2002. True to form, the JFJO demonstrates that being left of center doesn't mean being unfocused or incoherent; keyboardist/pianist Brian Haas, bassist Reed Mathis, and drummer Jason Smart know exactly what they are doing on risk-taking numbers like "Vernal Equinox" and "Grub Ridge Stomp." One piece that really speaks volumes about the JFJO is "Thelonious Monk Is My Grandmother," which incorporates elements of Monk's sound but does so without slavishly emulating the revolutionary pianist -- the tune demonstrates that improvisers can learn from jazz's past without being total slaves to it. Inevitably, bop snobs who lack a sense of humor will find the title "Thelonious Monk Is My Grandmother" offensive, but the JFJO isn't really making fun of Monk; the group is simply putting its goofy sense of humor to work. All Is One paints a consistently attractive picture of the JFJO's Knitting Factory appearance of March 2002. ~ Alex Henderson

Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey: Brian Haas (melodica, piano, Fender Rhodes piano); Reed Mathis (bass); Jason Smart (drums).

Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars JFJO live at the Knitting Factory
Great live recording of this wanderful trio ( with guests on percussion). All originals with a clear hint of Haas (keys and melodica) inspiration. Listen to this music and you'll understand why jazz isn't dead. A kind of free with strong melodical background is my better definition. Hope they'll soon perform in Italy. Halowdance

Digitally remastered by JVC using XRCD (Extended Resolution Compact Disc) technology. On each of his first three recordings for Riverside Thelonious Monk included a solo piano presentation, and for many listeners these were the highlights of each recital. And so it was decided that Monk's fourth Riverside recording, THELONIOUS HIMSELF, would be composed entirely of solo interpretations...well, almost. Those accustomed to the effusive stylings of keyboard masters such as Art Tatum might be baffled by Monk's approach. Monk is essentially a minimalist, a virtuoso of color, accent and space, who relinquished the technical trappings of his craft in pursuit of a specific aesthetic vision. Strip away the more extravagant aspects of Tatum's art--the showy runs, the ornate grace notes, ...
