The Music Of Paul Motian

by Joel Harrison

supported by

John Cratchley This 'string choir' is a lovely way to come at the late lamented Paul Motian's music...it has an ethereal lightness and spacial construction that suits this distinctive approach but don't run away with the impression that this is some kind of exercise in obscure arrangement...Motian's songs are full of spirit and wry humour (just like the man himself).
Some of my most memorable listening experiences were gigs by Motian,Lovano and Frisell...his music needs to be kept in the 'now'and this recording achieves that.

Brazen Heart Live at Jazz Standard - Complete
by Dave Douglas Quintet 2015

supported by 9 fans who also own “The Music Of Paul Motian”

Yes,yes,yes! I've been waiting for Dave to do this again...two brilliant runs by DDQ and Keystone were documented on Greenleaf back in the day; they were groundbreaking...recorded and released within 24 hours for each set...they were stellar performances and I play them again and again. With absolutely no chance of ever being there, this is the closest i'll ever be to 'being there'...so excited I may need to lay down in a darkened room for a while! John Cratchley

This quintet has acquired legendary status as a working unit...all the musicians are exemplary at their craft and DD is one of my 'Big5'...he is an exquisite composer of both depth and breadth of vision...you can instantly recognise Dave's DNA in a tune...what's more, you feel there is also so much more to come!;his powers of expression are so special. These compositions are from the heart and I can only suggest that you take them to yours... John Cratchley
