Recorded in Lacy's home, excellent sound and acoustics bring the horn up close. Extremely lyrical, the pieces progress at a steady, unhurried pace. In fact, the whole album flows without much differentiation (with the obvious exception of track nine, on which wife and longtime collaborator Irene Aebi sings): similar mood, similar tempo, and few pauses. But if it seems rather like a medley, or has the feel of a comfortable demonstration, that's because this recording is, essentially, Lacy practicing. Sands, however, can be quite helpful for students or any fan who wants to hear the method behind the skill of this modern master. ~ Joslyn Layne Producer: Steve Lacy, Steve Lacy Format: CD (1 Disc); Stereo Country: USA Studio/Live: Studio Guest Artist: Irene Aebi Release Date: 1 July, 1998 Label: Tzadik Dimensions: 12.5 x 14.2 x 1 centimeters (0.11 kg)
