I Wish (Live): 18:19 Credits Double Bass: Enrico Fazio Drums: Fiorenzo Sordini Alto Saxophone: Elton Dean Trumpet: Harry Beckett Description «Here the Italian stallion rhythm section (bassist Enrico Fazio and drummer Fiorenzo Sordini) reaches out to embrace Canterbury scenester saxophonist Elton Dean and Brit jazz trumpeter extraordinaire Harry Beckett and the result is a muscular yet lyrical session of high flying tempos, hard swinging blues, and fiery, knotty interactions between frontline and rhythm section. It's the Brits who had to give the most in this session, Dean's elaborately styled playing and phrasing which have served him well with Soft Machine and other jazz and prog rock outfits, has had to be pared back somewhat on this date.» «This, in spite of the fact that he wrote most of the compositions here, has made him a far more expansive improviser. Beckett, who has played with everyone from Bortherhood of Breath to John Surman to Dean, has taken his direct jazz approach and rounded its edges here, and blends very well with Dean. But it's the rhythm section that's the real story here; they bring the package of disparate elements together in a wash of grand vibes and sultry jazz pyrotechnics. On the title track, Fazio wails a pizzicato blues line under Beckett's angled lines making them smooth for a Dean solo that follows Sordini's accents.» «On Dean's "Small Strides," a complex melodic pattern has Sordini double-timing Dean and Beckett through an inverted harmonic sequence that opens up onto a theme and three variations as Fazio strides the backbeat. Finally, on Beckett's "I Wish," Fazio plays one of the most elaborately lyrical and poignant bass solos in Italian jazz history, only to have his arco work under-girded by a pastoral sequence by Sordini before the front line comes back in to whisper the track to a close elegaically. This was a phenomenal meeting, and this record has enduring grace and power. » Source: allmusic.com Logs Data Preview 01.
