  | JACK DEJOHNETTE ~ ONENESS
ECM 1637 (Barcode: 731453734326) ~ USA ~ Jazz
Recorded: 1997 Released: 1997
This is an excellent, but unfortunately little known album by the legendary drummer / composer Jack DeJohnetteFind albums by this artist. In parallel to his work as a sideman with the most important Jazz musicians for over 40 years, he also led his own ensembles, like this one. The album was recorded in a quartet setting with pianist Michael CainFind albums by this artist, guitarist / bassist Jerome HarrisFind albums by this artist and veteran percussionist Don AliasFind albums by this artist, and presents original music, written by DeJohnette or co-written by the quartet members. The music, firmly rooted in the Jazz tradition, embraces a cross-genre attitude, wandering into other territories, like atmospheric ambient or contemporary Classical music. This is definitely the more introvert and gentle side of this great musician. The album yet again emphasizes DeJohnette´s pivotal role in modern Jazz, always in the epicenter of creative breakthroughs. Recommended!
