This trio performance from saxophonist Peter Brotzmann, drummer Milford Graves and double bassist William Parker now gets a look back via Black Editions, and captures a moment in time when greater synergy between jazz musicians might have been possible. Broadcast from the front room of CBGBs in 2002, this is the first ever recording of the band playing together, mainly cementing Graves' chops and standing as an immensely great drummer and worthy of his place in the percussive hall of fame. Graves lives up - our through - to his Thurston Moore-dubbed "living myth" status, with each musician feeding off each other in an impossibly timeless, rare, and sleek New York jass standoff.
