“This is a most impressive and ambitious work. Altoist Logan Richardson is sure to capture many ears with this collection of original ideas, unexpected choices, impeccable delivery and phrasing within a very melodious and challenging group environment. Logan possesses a vocal-like flexibility and dexterity unlike any alto saxophonist that I’ve witnessed in an alarmingly long time. Explorative, vibrant and full of curiosity, this is a session for the times.” Greg Osby, 2006 (freshsoundrecords. com)
An off beat, a stretched note, a dissonant instrument—the imperfections which conservatoire music frowns on don't prevent jazz landing artfully on its feet. Saxophonist Logan Richardson’s debut album Cerebral Flow eschews the derivative character and high gloss aesthetic of recordings by so many other players of his age, and offers music that is fresh, human and uninhibited. He's accompanied in the main by young players of talent, plus the seasoned drummer Nasheet Waits on half the tunes.
The disc's opener, “Turning Maze,” begins with a saxophone solo tinged with chamber and free jazz exploration, alongside a heavy groove vamp established by the band. The title track, which follows, is abstract yet melodious. “Urban Folk Song” contains a flowing guitar solo by Mike Moreno and simultaneous solos from Richardson and vibraphone player Mike Pinto, before concluding with a sweet bass and drums pattern.
The inclusion of both vibraphone and guitar, both well exploited by Richardson’s complex and lyrical writing, allows the music to move in interesting directions—“Animated Concept Of Being” is marked by active, evolutionary shifts in mood and intensity, while the drum and saxophone duos “Like Water” and “Feel The Blues” are complete blow-out numbers, showcasing Richardson’s muscularity and post-John Coltrane freedom. Some may be turned off by the adventurous and unpristine sound, but this is fine modern jazz and Richardson is a young cat who we should be hearing more from in the future. - Mark F.
