Brilliant solo guitar work from Alex Ward on The Trade... Ward is also one of the best writers on the work of Cecil Taylor... I wonder what he's making of the Iridium set, which continues to blow me away... Still digging into Pat Thomas... ISM is the piano trio nugget of Ahmed (minus the sax)... Metaphor is a healthy dose of Thomas's acoustic piano work, and it's exhilarating... Another great Thomas performance is on Tony Oxley's Angular Apron...
