Negative Positive
Title: Simply, beautifully displays the power of percussion
Review: In 1980 this was a breakthrough album, consisting of dynamic performances by master drummer / percussionists showcasing warmth, humor, intensity, and picture-painting. "World Music", American jazz, future primitive music fusing traditions of innovation. The melodic lines of vibes, marimba and xylophone blend with the power of timpanis, drumset, congas, claves and the rest of the M'Boom artillery. If you like Santana, Spyro Gyra, Gary Burton, Airto, Mickey Hart, or Combustible Edison you should check out this album. It's a gem. By the way, M'Boom is a large group of fine musicians organized by Max Roach -- it isn't Max on his own.
