     Nice Guys was the first Art Ensemble of Chicago album  released
     after a five-year recording hiatus and the group's first for
     the ECM label. During those five years, the Art Ensemble toured
     Europe and continued to expand its compositional,
     improvisational, and theatrical jazz fundamentals, captured
     abundantly on Nice Guys. Broken up into six pieces, two each
     from Roscoe Mitchell and Joseph Jarman and one each from Lester
     Bowie and Don Moye, the album reveals how the AEC managed to
     turn individual compositions into a fully realized,
     surprisingly accessible, avant garde group collective. Nice
     Guys maintains its edge while incorporating reggae, New Orleans
     marches, and a wide use of space complemented by "little
     instruments" (car horn, whistles, etc.). The strongest portion
     of the disc is the finale "Dreaming of the Master," dedicated
     to Miles Davis and sounding not unlike Davis' mid-'60s quintet
     -- while maintaining the AEC edge.
