Milestones Posted March 7, 2015 Report Posted March 7, 2015 (edited) I really only came across this music recently, and I find it quite enjoyable. It's too bad there were just two records. You have James Carter in his early days and the great Steve Turre. And it's certainly worth checking out Myers--she is not your average greasy organist. You wouldn't really expect this from Bowie, or at least I wouldn't. The playing is pretty straight (by Bowie standards), but certainly of fine quality. Always good to hear another version of "When the Spirit Returns," and this one is sterling. You don't often hear organ ensembles led by a trumpeter; usually they don't even include a trumpeter. And then you make it the one and only Lester Bowie! Edited March 7, 2015 by Milestones Quote

Milestones Posted March 10, 2015 Author Report Posted March 10, 2015 I wonder if any live material has been (or will be) officially released. Quote
Hot Ptah Posted March 10, 2015 Report Posted March 10, 2015 I liked these albums very much when they were first released, and have listened to them regularly over the years. Quote
