Genesis (Limited Edition 313 Eclipse Vinyl)

Elvin Jones - drums

Gene Perla - bass

Frank Foster - tenor saxophone, alto flute

Dave Liebman - tenor saxophone, soprano saxophone


Recorded at Van Gelder Studio - Englewood Cliffs, NJ 1971 by Rudy Van Gelder



Elvin Jones, one of the true great drummers in jazz, recorded this album in 1971 after having led his own band for several years following his immortal work with the John Coltrane Quartet. This unique recording has a spacious feel with plenty of room for the players to work out the melodic compositions created by the members of the group. At times the recording creates an almost cinematic space, yet always propelling forward into unexpected territory. No pandering to contemporary tastes at this date or following the trends of the time, this is simply a great example of mature musicians given the freedom to create their own vision and place in time.  Saxophonists Frank Foster and Dave Liebman instruments intertwine in a spellbinding way with opportunities to showcase Jones’ incredible virtuosity as a drummer. An album that reveals itself to the listener slowly with new delights every time it’s removed from the jacket.
