Review by Richard S. Ginell

J.J. Johnson finds himself at the helm of a dream band here -- a full brass orchestra with French horns, euphoniums, tubas, and a harp -- and gets to exploit its possibilities wherever they might lead. The results are beyond category, where the veteran trombonist's writing has a feathery richness, urbanity, and a depth charge in the bass reminiscent of, but not really indebted to, Gil Evans. There is plenty of straight-ahead jazz grooving but also several episodes of formal, almost classical writing, as in the suitably joyous If I Hit the Lottery, and rigorous combinations of both, like the angular tribute to Béla Bartók, Canonn for Bela. The generous Johnson doesn't even appear on a piece he commissioned from Robin Eubanks called Cross Currents -- Eubanks performs the sputtering trombone solo -- nor on Slide Hampton's blazing Comfort Zone. He also revisits some of his early third stream experiments from the '50s and '60s; Ballad for Joe derives from his Poem for Brass and Horn of Plenty and Ballade from the Perceptions album (the latter two sound a bit staid under the current light). Johnson's own trombone solos are always imaginative, authoritative, and irresistibly swinging; at 72, he plays as well here as he ever did. This is a must-buy for all J.J. fans and those who thought that the third stream could never rise again.
