Yeah, the book is good, and I also recommend checking out the William Parker Quartet (Rob Brown on alto sax, Lewis Barnes on trumpet, Hamid Drake on drums). They have five albums: O'Neal's Porch, Sound Unity, Petit Oiseau, Meditation/Resurrection, and a live box set, Wood Flute Songs: Anthology Live 2006-2012. BUT the same group occasionally adds vocalist Leena Conquest and pianist Eri Yamamoto and records as Raining On The Moon, so also check out Corn Meal Dance and Great Spirit.

Yes! I’ve heard one of the raining on the moon records and loved it. I’ll buy a cheap cd with most/any of this circle of players, I’m just not out looking for stuff like j used to be.
