Alto saxophonist Jackie McLean's 1960s output ran the gamut from hard bop to the avant-garde with his 1964 post-bop dates It's Time! And Action splitting the difference. Trumpeter Charles Tolliver had appeared alongside McLean in the horn frontline on It's Time! And returned once again for Action the next month, with McLean opting for Bobby Hutcherson's vibraphone in place of piano, as well as Cecil McBee on bass, and Billy Higgins on drums. The albums leaps out of the gate with McLean's searing title track followed by two pensive Tolliver originals InchPlightInch and InchWrong Handle.Inch On a highly original version of the standard InchI Hear a RhapsodyInch the melody is answered by discordant interjections from the horns before the album comes to a close with McLean's grooving minor key piece InchHootnan.Inch Album Tracks 1.

Crumb is the collaboration of Brooklyn-based musicians Lila Ramani (guitar, vocals), Brian Aronow (synth, keys, sax), Jesse Brotter (bass), and Jonathan Gilad (drums). The friends came together in 2016 with the goal of developing and recording a collection of songs Ramani had written in high school and college, the work ultimately resulting in the band's first two EPs, 2016's InchCrumbInch and 2017's InchLocket.Inch Encouraged by the warm reception online and at shows, the band evolved into a full time touring and recording project. In June 2019, Crumb will Jinx, their first full-length album and best distillation to date of their singular blend of psych-rock and jazz. On Jinx, Ramani continues to helm the songwriting, with Aronow, Brotter, and Gilad each bringing distinctive ideas to match her ethereal, intimate vocals and luminous guitar lines. Informed by two years of nearly non-stop touring, the songs sweep and swell to capture the beguiling live spirit of Crumb shows, while taking listeners one step further down the band's dizzying, hypnotic path.
Jackie McLean - InchJacknife (Blue Note Tone Poet Edition)Inch. Jackie McLean's evocative 1965 album Jacknife captured the saxophonist in a post-bop mode with trumpeters Lee Morgan and Charles Tolliver, pianist Larry Willis, bassist Larry Ridley, and drummer Jack DeJohnette. McLean's fiery sound ignites modal explorations, churning rhythms, and hard bop grooves. This stereo Blue Note Tone Poet Edition was produced by Joe Harley, mastered by Kevin Gray from the original analog master tapes, pressed on 180g vinyl at RTI, and packaged in a deluxe gatefold tip-on jacket.
... Antiquity, an invigorating series of duets... (Gary Giddins, Village Voice)... highly enjoyable... (Cadence)... in a way, there are more music here than many releases with four or five participants... (Jørgen Frigård, Politiken)
