While the stylings of this young virtuoso may elicit comparisons to earlier saxophone legends, James Carter has forged an aesthetic and style distinctly his own. Here, he achieves a remarkable synthesis of tune-oriented composition, swirling '60s moodiness (flavored by a Hammond organ) and a sharp-edged clarity. The album opens with "Lianmo," a piece reminiscent of 1950's MILESTONES-era compositions, with the horns following a melodic phrase at closely spaced intervals. Bluesy renditions of "Down To The River," "Trouble In The World" and Kenneth Green's "Odyssey" provide a framework from dazzling solos. Carter's own compositions also range widely in style: from the intense, jerky time-signatures of "Skull Grabbin'," to the warm, intimate feel of "Lockjaw's Lament" to the funky beats and athletic hornsmanship of "In Carterian Fashion."
Carter continually lulls and surprises the ear with his rich tone and adventurous phrasing. Whether flowing smoothly through carefully considered melodic sentences or racing through a flurry of notes, his execution is flawless. Simultaneously a throwback and a look ahead, IN CARTERIAN FASHION has something for everyone, brought together in one package of finesse and superior musicianship.
