Title: Wow
Review: David S. Ware (b. 1949) is an incredibly talented tenor saxophonist who reminds me of a young Archie Shepp. This music is open and edgy, demanding listeners to let it inside. Ware represents a corner of the jazz world that continues to create, evolve and inspire modern listeners and critics with a sound uniquely his own. He is one of a handful pushing ahead on the cutting edge of freeform jazz music."Surrendered", recorded in October of 1999, is a superb endeavor with Ware accompanied by the following musicians: Matthew Shipp (piano), William Parker (bass) and Guillermo E. Brown (drums). Ware's musings are careful yet unreserved, at once appearing as violent as they do tame. Occasionally Shipp pops up from the background with a stellar piano solo for audiences, with Parker and Brown forming the makes of a solid rhythm section. This album is well worth the price.
