For my money, Tenor Rising / Drums Expanding was one of the great high energy free jazz outfits of the 1990s. They released only one-and-a-half records during their lifetime, but they are rowdy barnstormers, overflowing with spontaneity and vigor, with dramatic rumble and euphoric honk. Daniel Carter and Sabir Mateen collaborate in many groups, most notably in TEST, and David Nuss' highest profile gig is with the No-Neck Blues Band. Fans of any of these outfits or of top notch exuberant free jazz in general should snap up this beautiful picture disc. Restocked, much to my pleasant surprise.

Daniel Carter: drums, voice
Sabir Mateen: tenor saxophone, organ, voice
