I see Acman heard the call, and has risen to the occasion; I'm listen to "Serpine Fire", it has an ECM flavor. (do not compare this to "Jazz Jazz")
I'm listening to this music for what it's worth on it's ground. Since the artists in new jazz are not as well known as those in "old jazz" lets get acquainted; Jack DeJohnette (born August 9, 1942)[1] is an American jazz drummer, pianist, and composer; jazz fusion, and new-age are the additional genres he favors.
If you listen carefully you will hear "Miles" in this "Serpentine Fire"; that's because he played with Miles for awhile, which means they liked one another's music.
My criticism is that it does not have a clear cut beginning, middle and end.
"Made in Chicago", got a rating of 4 1/2 stars out of 5, which is very high. As I stated previously, Frogman is far more qualified to review "New Jazz" than I am. (where is Frogman) For some reason, music of this nature sounded better in the 80's, when I listened to similar music and artists on this very same label.
Enjoy the music.
