About This Item
Vinyl LP pressing. Ralph Alessi's fourth appearance as a leader for the ECM tag follows a singular album run that's been met with nothing but praise from the New York Times to the Guardian. On his new album, Alessi's unique tone is as limber, piercing and present as ever, enveloped by a fresh quarter lineup including Florian Weber (piano), BInchnz Oester (bass) and Gerry Hemingway (drums), that navigates through the trumpeter's idiosyncratically swinging compositions with a sixth sense.
