It’s rare to find anything touched by Tom Harrell that doesn’t satisfy and
inspire. His first release in over a year finds him in a quartet setting,
playing trumpet and flugelhorn with Ugonna Okegwo on bass, drummer Adam Cruz
and the clever idea of having Luis Perdomo play not only piano, but doubling on
the Fender Rhodes. The keyboards are a good choice, giving cool subdued colors
to Harrell’s subtones on the flugelhorn on “Tribute” and supplying juice to the
groove on “ Fivin’” and a soul function to the pulsating “Shadows”. Tufts keeps
things snappy on the aptly reverse-titled “Evoorg” with Harrell’s trumpet in
wondrous form, while his mallets lend to the grace of “Improv’, and his brushes
assuaging the spacious “Robot Etude”. Harrell multi-tracks the horns in a
brilliant and subtle way around Coates’ bass on “Archaeopteryx” and bops with
the best on “Love Tide”. Another strong addition to an inspiring catalogue.
