This version of bassist William ParkerÆs quartet debuted with the
superb OÆNealÆs Porch in 2002, but itÆs based on long-standing
allegiances. Alto saxophonist Rob Brown has worked with Parker since
the 1980s, while Parker and drummer Hamid Drake have established
themselves as a dominant rhythm section in many groupings, merging
the elasticity of free jazz with the grooves of classic Blue Note
hard bop. The clear inspiration for this band, completed by trumpeter
Lewis Barnes, is Ornette ColemanÆs quartet, circa 1960 ù a
resemblance marked by BrownÆs speech-like alto saxophone and DrakeÆs
pulsing polyrhythm, combining African, Caribbean and New Orleans
sources in a way that suggests ColemanÆs great drummer Eddie
Blackwell. But what makes the William Parker Quartet most resemble
the Coleman bands, and raises it well above imitation, is the almost
telepathic interaction and bubbling conversation between the four;
from homages to fallen giants like "Wood Flute Song" for Don Cherry
to the dancing mood of "Groove."

We are looking for quality sites in Europe and US, to be afilliated
on. Remember, we are not in it for the creds, but for the spreading
of quality music - we just want to get our releases out to the ppl
that wants/needs it. More pre sites fills this purpose.
