Title: This is not a sophomore slump
Review: I'm not that good at reviewing music anymore, but I thought I would give this a shot since there are no other reviews for "Version Soul."If you are gun-shy about Ken Vandermark's various side projects/offshoots, you can buy this one with confidence. Dare I say it, I think a song like "Size Large" can out-funkify anything from the Spaceways, Inc. debut album (the one of Sun Ra and Funkadelic covers, if that gives you any perspective).There is room for Vandermark's plaintive side too with "Rothko Sideways," which refers to, I believe, the time Mark Rothko accidentally left a painting of his sideways on his easel and almost didn't recognize it. Is that the story? Tell me if I'm wrong.As a deviation from Ken Vandermark's day job with his quartet, you can get away with saying that Spaceways, Inc. really comes into its own on this release. A very good album, even if it's not talked about that much.
