Great, great band, The Engines...this live recording (The Green Mill, Chicago) just hits the sweet spot continuously...
The playing, the improvising, the interplay, the energy and the verve just don't get better than this for me...all Ken Vandermark associates, all quality guaranteed composers.
Lots of exceptional stuff on this label (Dave Rempis' Aerophonic Records) too...check it all out, it's worth your time and effort. John Cratchley

Ken Vandermark is one of my 'big five' and this new(ish) project (four albums now) is already shaping up to become somewhat definitive.
I try not to use superlatives to describe music I find it necessary to your well-being to listen to but sometimes you have to admit it's the only way to go: a brilliant diamond in the dust.
It's akin to igniting rocket fuel... the momentum is unstoppable and it engenders the aural equivalent of arc-light. John Cratchley
