Drummer Matt Wilson refuses to be pigeonholed into any one category on this wide-ranging CD. With keyboardist Larry Goldings, bassist Dennis Irwin and trumpeter Terell Stafford (who doubles on flugelhorn), Wilson and company obviously enjoyed themselves in the studio. Goldings' quirky post-bop "Sticky Mack" inspires some of the best solos of the date, followed by Wilson's slightly funky "Free Range Chicken." The group also delves into works by departed greats, including Jaki Byard's infrequently heard ballad "Aluminum Baby" and drummer Tony Williams' unusual hymn-like "There Comes a Time," with Goldings' driving organ, Stafford's saucy trumpet, and guest Curtis Stigers' potent vocals. Charlie Haden's "Silence" features Wilson's crisp brush-work, with Goldings' dirge-like organ and Stafford's haunting solo. The best drum feature is easily the playful arrangement of "Cuban Carnival Song," in which Irwin switches to clarinet and Stafford offers a spirited solo, though the leader easily steals the show with his lively percussion. A loping treatment of the standard "We'll Be Together Again" has a playful call-and-response between Stafford and Goldings, with the pianist playfully detouring into "Take the 'A' Train" and hinting at other a few other songs. This is yet another very impressive date as a leader by Matt Wilson. ~ Ken DrydenDown Beat (p.66) - 4 stars out of 5 - "[A]n ebullient, playful outing....It's genuine all right. The real thing."

The sum total of the nuanced, elliptical lyricism at the heart of Paul Motian's compositional method can be heard in the opening seconds of "Osmosis Part III," the first track from I Have the Room Above Her. Recorded for ECM -- with producer Manfred Eicher, guitarist Bill Frisell and saxophonist Joe Lovano -- this date is Motian's first as a leader for the label in more than 20 years. This is the same team that recorded the seminal album It Should've Happened a Long Time Ago in 1984. At that time, Lovano and Frisell were just beginning to establish themselves as bandleaders though they had each recorded under their own names. The weight placed on each member of this band is tremendous ...

While recording for Blue Note in the 1960s, composer and pianist Andrew Hill released some of the most forward-thinking and meticulously constructed albums of the post-bop era. The intelligence and daring that characterized those albums still inhabits Hill's recordings, as 2006's TIME LINES attests.
Flanked by a fine quartet (a bassist, drummer, trumpeter, and the multi-talented Greg Tardy on tenor sax, ...
