Jazz
JFJO's first album on a national record label, Accurate Records, Welcome Home received rave reviews ("Rookies of the Year!" - Signal to Noise) and documents the seven-piece Jacob Fred at the peak of their unity and group-concept. This album finds them exploring a variety of odd-meter compositions ("Seven Inch Six," "MMW," "Seventh Greenbelt"), hip-hop poly-chomatic dixieland ("Muskogee Smalls"), and post-Miles sound-tapestries ("Road to Emmaus"). Welcome Home is widely considered the most evolved album by the old JFJO septet line-up. |
