An indie-rock band recording an homage to an avant-jazz sax player? Unless the indie band in question is Sonic Youth, that might seem like a curious proposition, but with the help of members of neo-Afrobeat ensembles NOMO and Antibalas, His Name is Alive craft a sophisticated, often contemplative tribute to Marion Brown on SWEET EARTH FLOWER. It all makes sense when you consider the expansive, atmospheric quality that has always been the band's calling card and that serves them in good stead on this project.

His Name Is Alive: Warn Defever (guitar, piano); Michael Herbst (alto saxophone); Elliot Bergman (tenor saxophone, Fender Rhodes piano); Justin Walter (trumpet); Erik Hall (Wurlitzer organ); Jamie Saltsman (double bass); Dan Piccolo (drums, percussion); Olman Piedra (congas, cajon drums); Jamie Easter (percussion).

The Wire (p.59) - "Brown's devotional offerings have been well served by this most unlikely tribute."
Down Beat (p.68) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "[T]his is less a cover album than a conjuring and celebration of its honoree's spirit, which may be the highest tribute of all."
JazzTimes (p.82) - "[I]ts inspired and intuitive mastery of the saxophonist's music more than makes it worthwhile."

Jesus Christ said in the Revelation 3:16 “if you are lukewarm I will spew you out of my mouth.” It was those words that pricked Charles’ heart and made him realize that he should live a lifestyle of worship and not just play the part when there was a church service going on.Growing up as a preacher’s kid it was very easy for Charles to portray the “good guy” image and pretend that everything was perfect. After serving in the ministry however, as a worship leader, singer, and songwriter ...

Rubber Bullets Salt & Battery CD  (2007)

Sweet Earth Flower: A Tribute To Marion Brown
CD $16.45
A Salt and Battery is the first of three “themed” albums to be released by “the rubber bullets”, a band based in the San Francisco Bay Area of California. A Salt and Battery examines the many facets of “man’s inhumanity to man” (and woman and, to a lesser extent, barnyard animals – see “Crow”) and is to be followed by “Domestic Violins” (relationship-themed) and Carp per Diem (songs with a somewhat “philosophical” bent). It is the observation of this…well, observer (observationist?) that a dogmatic, lecturing or “preachy” tone on such subject matter is likely to lead to drooping eyelids, stupor and a general somnambulant malaise (and, in extreme examples, rolling eyes, tapping feet and outright resentment) which deters any “point” from being made. Therefore, the “rubber bullets” approach on “A Salt and Battery” is to utilize humor, with an emphasis on sarcasm and an “over-the-top” delivery, to highlight behaviors and attitudes which we find to be ignorant and/or stupid (defined as: ignorance can be cured with an infusion of knowledge, whereas stupid is a permanent and possibly genetic deficiency which renders the victim incapable of assimilating said knowledge and, in many cases, leads to the perversion and misuse of the information in question), intolerant (see “stupid”), vain, selfish, deceitful, avaricious and destructive (all sub-categories of the afore-mentioned “stupid”). It is not incumbent upon any observer to agree with our point of view (when is it ever, anyway?). We understand that the “train brain” tendencies (stuck on a pre-determined track from which one is unable to deviate without catastrophic results) of those we critique preclude conversion of the opposition. It is our goal, in approaching a given scenario from “left field” (and, in some cases, the bleachers or even the parking lot) to shed a slightly different light on the subject which may lead to an altered perception by the listener, with humor ...
