Burnt Sugar the Arkestra Chamber, Making
Love to the Dark Ages, LiveWired Music

Making Love to the Dark Ages
features only five tracks, and
the first, "Chains and Water," clocks in at 26 minutes, divided in-
to three sections. As such, you might be expecting an instrumen-
tal release, but four of the pieces feature vocals (seven different
singers show up in the credits). Experimental, yet easy on the ears,
the disc brings to mind free-jazz classics like John Coltrane's A
Love Supreme, Archie Shepp's The Creator Has a Master Plan,
and Sun Ra's Space Is the Place. Granted, there's more of a
soul/R&B influence to Greg Tate's Burnt Sugar the Arkestra
Chamber, but you get the—mind and ear-expanding—idea.
