Title: Equilibrium is Off-Kilter
Product review: Well, I should first say I am unaccustomed to this realm of modern jazz piano. But the synthesizer, piano, and vibes combinations on this CD are really unappealing to me. I kept skipping tracks trying to find something I could bear to listen to, and was largely disappointed. If this is a "swinging, bluesy affair...(Shipp's) most straight ahead (recording)", as Newsweek called it, then I am surely not gonna like much else from this artist either. I thought the dark and halting tempos were unmelodic, and prettty lean on piano as well. I wouldn't know who to recommend this kind of music to, but I cringe at the thought of calling it....jazz.
