RARE!!!!

Featuring bass titan William Parker with Rob Brown on alto saxophone & clarinet, Lewis Barnes on trumpet and Hamid Drake on drums & percussion performing original compositions by William Parker.

Recorded in Brooklyn in December 2007

"Petit Oiseau", featuring a quartet with Lewis Barnes on trumpet, Rob Brown on alto and Hamid Drake, Parker's strongest rhythm partner, on drums. Here the compositional forms are sturdy and often concise, though they open up to individual and collective abstractions. Ethnic sounds resurface, expicitly or obliquely, and there are stretches of postbop swing, along with loose-limbed funk. Parker holds the whole thing together, inspiring excellent work from his colleagues and hitching the band to a common aim. "Petit Oiseau" is the William Parker record I'd recommend to neophytes and skeptics. Among its many lessons is a better understanding of Parker's bandleading as a corollary to his bass playing"
