Facts:
A collection of some of the best numbers played by Brainstorm when the band made its highly successful début at London's Ronnie Scott's Club. One of the most innovative and engaged small groups in contemporary improvised music, Brainstorm here presents 74 electrifying minutes of inspired and wideranging music and abundantly reaffirms the notion that jazz is the sound of surprise. As Ed Hazel has observed, "Chico Freeman's style combines the energy and wide leaps of John Coltrane's later work with a classic conception of form and a strong sense of swing."
