Why This CD Matters
Saxophonist Tim Berne leads this adventurous album as a tribute to composer and saxophonist Julius Hemphill, his mentor. Berne is joined by David Sanborn on soprano and alto saxophone, plus an ensemble featuring cello, electric guitar, and drums. The 21-minute “The Maze (For Julius)” gives the group room for an extended exploration of Hemphill’s music.
Collector Note
This 1993 European CD is the German-made JMT edition, catalog number 514 003-2. Its eight-track program was digitally recorded in New York in September 1992 and mastered at Bauer Studios in Germany the following month. The JMT catalog number and 1993 date distinguish this edition from the later Winter & Winter CD reissue.
