Domination is a curious curate's egg of an album, not previously
available on CD, and some of it bears considerable historical
interest. Tracks 1-8, recorded in '65 and originally released as
Domination, feature Cannonball and Nat Adderley over big band
charts arranged by Oliver Nelson. The twenty-minute closing track,
recorded in '70, features the two Adderleys and Joe Zawinul
performing Zawinul and William Fischer's early fusion suite
"Experience In E" over an almost symphonic orchestra arranged by
Fischer. Somewhere along the line, maverick producer David Axelrod
plays a part, probably as executive producer.
The Nelson-arranged Domination tracks are a mixed bag. A large part
of Nelson's gift was his ability to give new and and surprising
makeovers to well-known jazz, pop, and movie themes. Yet none of
the eight tunes here were well known in '65, and they remain
obscure today. Only Cannonball's "Introduction To A Samba" and Ray
Bryant's "Shake A Lady" made it, briefly, into the touring band's
book. Nelson's arrangements are typically full-on and gutsy, but
they lack the genius shock-of-the-new of his Jimmy Smith sessions.
That said, there's some strong soloing from the two brothers, and
Cole Porter's "I Worship You" is grand, with lovely solos from
Cannonball and Zawinul, the pianist's only one on the album.
All this serves as an enjoyable enough curtain raiser to
"Experience In E", originally released as part of the LP Cannonball
Adderley Quintet & Orchestra. Cannonball first performed the
five-part suite in '69, a few weeks before Zawinul went into the
studio with Miles for the In A Silent Way sessions.
Brooding and intense, "Experience In E" is close in concept to
early Weather Report, with motifs and broken riffs replacing
conventional chord progressions. Cannonball is the featured soloist
on parts one and two, Nat is featured on three, and Zawinul on
four. All three men play more (Zawinul) or less (the Adderleys)
impressionistic solos over Fischer's abstract orchestral backdrops.
A gritty, vocalised Cannonball is great on the shades-of-Zulu
second section, as is Nat on the Spanish-tinged third. Zawinul's
feature is deliciously "Shhh/Peaceful". The fifth and closing
section is a more conventional big band romp.

Note:
Tho I always want to support artists and their labels by buying
their CD's, it will probably be the last time I bought a CD with
EMI's Copy Control Protection.
I kindly suggest the fuckers at EMI to go and rot in hell.
I have been unable to play this CD in 2 of 4 'normal' high-end CD
players in my surrounding. What is this crap? I feel like I have no
other choice than to return this CD to the shop I bought it in.
The extraction to MP3 has cost me some serious trouble and time
which I could have much better spent on fucking girls, drinking
beer, smoking weed, listening other jazz records and eating
marshmellows. Everyone that buys an original CD should be able to
make copies for personal interests (ie. for MP3 player usage).
Although I always urge people to purchase the original recordings,
I feel sorry that I have to tell people to avoid CD's wearing the
Copy Controlled logo (or any other bullshit similar to this).
Anyways, it's still a Cannonball.
'Enjoy'.
