Ernest Dawkins' New Horizons Ensemble recorded at the Velvet Lounge on July 14, 2005. The Messenger's melody-harmonic-rhythm-tonic DNA matrix is encoded with all that came before and all that's happening now with Chicago jazz. This is music that rocks a funky-tight nappy-headed swing shift like it ain't no big thing. This is music that huffs, puffs and laffs like Jr. Wells a half-pint up. This is music that rolls like church, dances like Africa and strong-arms beats 'n' bops like Art Blakey when he had Wayne Shorter, Lee Morgan and Curtis Fuller in the Jazz Messengers. This is music that could only be conceived-written-arranged-performed by Ernest Dawkins' New Horizon Ensemble.
Complete notes enclosed by Tom Terrell.
AACM saxophonist/composer/bandleader Ernest Dawkins brought his NHE into the Velvet Lounge on July 14, 2005 for this live DVD/CD knowing it would be one of the groups' last performances at the historic "old" Velvet Lounge. The club is now closed (the last night was April 1, 2006) though the new location is supposed to be open soon. Trumpeter Maurice Brown has been gaining much critical acclaim and popularity in the last two years. His return to Chicago from New Orleans for this gig is a wonderful addition to Steve Berry, trombone; Darius Savage, bass and Isaiah Spencer, drums. |
