Nuovo album, 2011, per la famosa band fusion. Uno dei gruppi storici del genere, dove ritmi caraibici e samba vanno di pari passo con motivi soul e jazz.
Pianista atipica, Renee Rosnes è una da tenere d'occhio. In questo nuovo lavoro presenta una incredible suite, The Galapagos Suite, che occupa quasi tutto il CD ( Ben 7 brani per un totale di quasi 45 minuti). La accompagnano per l'occasione Peter Washington, Steve Nelson, Bill Stewart.
Questo duo rappresenta un esperimento che spinge i confini della musica stessa. La loro collaborazione non si limita a generi come il free jazz o la musica improvvisativa. Invece, si erge come un'avventura sonora che esplora il potenziale del suono del basso elettrico e percussioni.
Recorded at The Monterey Jazz Festival, Monterey, CA (September 18, 1966) and track 5 at The Pacific Jazz Festival, Costa Mesa, CA (October 8, 1966 - incorrectly dated October 18 in the liner notes).
The LP version of Don Ellis "Live At Monterey" contained a version of "Concerto For Trumpet" that was actually recorded at the "Pacific Jazz Festival" in Costa Mesa, California the following month. The Monterey version of "Concerto For Trumpet" must not have been up to Don Ellis' standards, and he and producer Richard Bock substituted the Costa Mesa performance in place of the rejected Monterey performance. The 'Monterey version' of "Concerto For Trumpet" will not be issued.
Recorded on May 19, 1965 at the Van Gelder Studio, Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey
