Description
The brilliant pianistDon Pullenwas a striking and versatile player whose music spanned a wide variety of styles. Pullen first came to prominence as a member of Charles Mingus group in the early 1970s, and later formed a co-led quartet with saxophonist George Adams that was signed to Blue Note Records in 1986. Following two excellent Pullen/Adams Quartet albumsBreakthroughandSong EverlastingPullen branched out on his own in the trio format with his 1988 recordingNew Beginningsfeaturing bassistGary Peacockand drummerTony Williams. This impressive 6-song set of original compositions found Pullen getting down to the core of his distinctive sound with the wild avant-garde flourishes of pieces like Reap the Whirlwind juxtaposed against winsome groove- and swing-rooted pieces like Janas Delight and the title track. via Label
