███
███ Set Us Free, Reuben Wilson's final album for Blue Note, was
███ issued in 1971. Since that time it has become an immortal and
███ much sought classic by beatheads for a single track: "We're in
███ Love." DJ Premier sampled it liberally -- for its Hammond B-3
███ vamps, backing vocals, and decorative percussion -- for use on
███ rapper Nas' smash "Memory Lane." Hip-hop fans suddenly had to
███ hear more, and as a result not only is Wilson active again on
███ the circuit, but there has also been terrific interest in his
███ catalog. Not only did Blue Note's Michael Cuscuna reissue this
███ all but forgotten nugget for the label's killer Rare Groove
███ series (before August 2008 it had never been available on CD in
███ America), but Chicago's Dusty Groove re-released 1975's funky
███ Cadet burner Got to Get Your Own during the same month.
███
███ Set Us Free stands almost completely outside the space inhabited
███ by the rest of Wilson's Blue Note titles. Produced by the late
███ George Butler, it's a wildly textured and seamless aural meld of
███ gritty B-3 jams, smooth yet psychedelic soul, rock, pop, and
███ funk. Wilson and Butler employed a killer band for this date
███ that included reedman Jerome Richardson, bassist Richard Davis,
███ guitarist David Spinozza (who also plays some electric sitar on
███ the date), drummer Jimmy Johnson, conguero Ray Armando,
███ percussionist Specs Powell, and Gene Bianco on harp; the entire
███ proceeding was arranged by the great Wade Marcus.
███
███ Vocal arranger Jimmy Briggs was brought in to write charts for a
███ female backing chorus on a funky Latinized blues version of "Mr.
███ Big Stuff," the lush psych-soul babymaker "We're in Love," and
███ Marvin Gaye's "Mercy, Mercy, Mercy (The Ecology)." This isn't to
███ say that there aren't slamming organ jams on the set; Marcus'
███ "Right on with This Mess" makes that abundantly clear. That
███ said, even on these back-to-basics numbers, Wilson's B-3 may be
███ up front and slamming, but Richardson's sweet soprano saxophone
███ (which, to be fair, wails in its solo), the warm guitar lines,
███ and the congas add depth and dimension -- even while Johnson's
███ drums are breaking all over the place.
███
███ The title track, written by Eddie Harris, is smooth instrumental
███ soul at its best -- Richardson's soprano and the hand drums are
███ up front with Davis' slowly rolling bassline and the hand drums.
███ But it cuts loose in places, with Wilson adding textural
███ flourishes in his solo rather than soaring above the mix. The
███ closest thing to the hard bopping blues Wilson's other recording
███ showcased are sections of the closer, "Tom's Thumb," but even
███ here, with its harp adornment, augmented major sevenths by
███ Spinozza, and the shuffling one-two one-two of Johnson, this
███ comes off as exotic -- especially with the wonderful percussion
███ section laying in the cut as he breaks often and true.
███
███ Wilson is the only one letting it rip. Yet somehow, this
███ ambitious, lushly orchestrated album not only sounds current,
███ but still ahead of its time. Highly recommended.
