██ There is a consistency to Ellery Eskelin's core trio with ██
██ Jim Black and Andrea Parkins that never seems to fail. The ██
██ group rarely makes a subpar album ù and this one is no ██
██ different. What is different about this release, though, is ██
██ that it celebrates the tenth anniversary of the group, and ██
██ Eskelin invited three additional heavyweight players ù ██
██ guitarist Marc Ribot, electric bassist Melvin Gibbs, and ██
██ vocalist Jessica Constable ù to join the trio. While Eskelin ██
██ has added guests before ù for example, on the somewhat ██
██ disappointing Ramifications ù here the additional players ██
██ are not simply extras, but are fully integrated into the ██
██ concept of the album. (The album is subtitled ██
██ "EEwAP&JB+3(10)," which appears Braxtonian but is actually ██
██ an easily decipherable description of the players.) A couple ██
██ of the tracks include all six players, while the others ██
██ combine selected performers. Credits are not listed for each ██
██ track, and it is curiously not always easy to guess who is ██
██ playing, although the leader/saxophonist is the only one to ██
██ play on all of them. Besides the extra musicians, the other ██
██ distinguishing aspect of the album is that it is fully ██
██ improvised, a concept Eskelin successfully pursued on ██
██ Vanishing Point. This tenth-anniversary bonanza is ██
██ disappointing only in that it does not deliver a punch ██
██ commensurate with increased expectations. The stars continue ██
██ to be the core trio, and especially Eskelin himself, ██
██ although the extra players contribute substantially. Eskelin ██
██ solos magnificently on the opening "If Not Now" and ██
██ elsewhere, while Ribot's hairy guitar pummels the wildly ██
██ exuberant "Ask Me Why" with Black pounding away, and "No ██
██ Illusions" sounds something like Ornette Coleman's Prime ██
██ Time, with the eerie voice of Constable floating above. ██
██ While the vocalist is devastatingly effective on this piece, ██
██ she is hit or miss on the other three tracks on which she ██
██ appears, her unconventional vocalizing almost creating a new ██
██ language, which ù while interesting ù is not always ██
██ appealing, although that is ultimately a matter of personal ██
██ taste. Ripe with potential, Ten only partially delivers, ██
██ lacking the focus of Eskelin's superior works. Nonetheless, ██
██ while it may not be one of Eskelin's premier recordings, it ██
██ is filled with enough excitement that his admirers will find ██
██ plenty to appreciate. ██
