In the spirit of spontaneity, Bronx-born drummer and former Black Panther Steve Reid, joined by Kieren Hebden and keyboardist Boris Netsvetaev, traveled to Africa last January to jam with the locals, and though this isn't a new practice (see Nomadic Wax's entire catalog), Daxaar is probably the most original result to come of this activity. Named after an earlier spelling of Senegalese city Dakar, the album showcases a huge sampling of tribal drums, and the kind of improv jazz that would make Thelonius Monk proud. A refreshing–and uplifting–change of pace from Africa. 12/11/07 >> go there
