One of the great, and most underrated, figures in the jazz avant-garde, composer, and reedman Sam Rivers turned out rigorous, substantive work from the early '60s well into the 2000s. "Contrasts" featuring performances recorded in 1979 and released on the ECM label.
Tenor saxophonist Sam Rivers (also heard on soprano and flute) teams up in a quartet with trombonist George Lewis, bassist Dave Holland and drummer Thurman Barker (doubling on marimba) for a date that certainly defies the stereotype of a typical ECM session. The seven Rivers originals, although sometimes having colorful melodies, are quite complex. However, the intriguing and very alert interplay between the brilliant musicians makes the music seem fairly logical and worth exploring by adventurous listeners.
