Ben Allison & Medicine Wheel - Riding The Nuclear Tiger (2001)


[Jazz/Progressive]

(Thanks Carlos)

Walking a fine line between Jazz and Progressive (in a sense) Riding the Nuclear Tiger is an impressive release by bassist Ben Allison and his crew.

Jazz is one of those genres where labeling something as "phenomenal" is really hard. Not because jazz is a sub-par genre, far from it. But because of the immense number of ways it can be constructed, interpreted, arranged and delivered are too wide to pinpoint a specific way to make something stand out. But this release does it.

It's one of those things you can really only explain by listening to it yourself.

Enjoy.
