The Nearer the Bone, the Sweeter the Meat

The Wire recently called this trio with two legendary South African jazz musicians one of Peter Brötzmann’s most essential albums! “Moholo’s skipping gallop of rat-a-tat snare and high-tuned toms, accompanied by shouts and moans of ecstatic excitement, propels the set with terrific forward momentum. But what’s most impressive is the trio’s ability to ease off the volume and open up a more subtle sound palette, without ever letting the velocity or intensity flag.” A must have!
