a seamless string of free-improvisations, done in the moment without preconception, in a variety of settings. Captured live in concert in the early morning hours, the start of the album finds the Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey closing out the High Sierra Music Festival, in a hall packed with thousands of mesmerized festival goers. By the end of the album we find them doing the same thing as the sun rises at the close of the New Orleans Jazz Festival (complete with an all-star horn section!), this time captured in an intimite room filled with music-hungrey up-all-nighters egging them on. Aside from a brief theme thrown in from the Jacob Fred composition "Son of Jah", the entire album is played in the trio"s own unique signature of free-improvisation as a unit, allowing faith in the passing moment to shape each piece. It makes for some amazing listening discoveries, as you hear wave after wave of discovery washing over these inspired players. special guests: saxophonists Skerik, Mark Southerland, Brad Houser, and Frank Catalano
