█  Review	by Ken Dryden                                                      █
█                                                                            █
█  Geri Allen's musical interests prove to be quite diverse in Timeless      █
█  Portraits and Dreams, delving into jazz, spirituals, sacred works and     █
█  originals, accompanied by two of the most in-demand veterans, bassist     █
█  Ron Carter and drummer Jimmy Cobb, throughout most of the release.        █
█  Allen''s stunning solo opener "Oh Freedom" segues directly into another   █
█  fine work, "Melchezedek," which showcases both Allen and Carter in the    █
█  solo spotlight, with wordless vocals by the Atlanta Jazz Chorus adding    █
█  background color. Singer Carmen Lundy and the chorus are on hand for the  █
█  spirit-filled "Well Done" and Allen's gorgeous ballad "Timeless           █
█  Portraits and Dreams." Other vocal tracks include two features for tenor  █
█  George Shirley, including "I Have a Dream" (from Mary Lou's Mass          █
█  composed by Mary Lou Williams after the assassination of Dr. Martin       █
█  Luther King, Jr.) and a vigorous treatment of the piece considered as     █
█  the Black National Anthem, "Lift Every Voice and Sing." Trumpeter         █
█  Wallace Roney (Allen's husband) smolders in Allen's tasty post-bop        █
█  vehicle "In Real Time" and makes a belated entrance in the tense,         █
█  strident tribute "Our Lady (For Billie Holiday)." Allen throws the        █
█  listener a curve with her well-disguised introduction to the trio         █
█  arrangement of Charlie Parker's "Ah-Leu-Cha" and uncovers a neglected     █
█  gem in Lil Hardin Armstrong's ballad "Just for a Thrill." While some      █
█  jazz fans may prefer to hear Geri Allen in a strictly instrumental        █
█  setting, they will miss out if they fail to investigate these             █
█  stimulating sessions. Highly recommended.                                 █
