Walt Dickerson - tell us only the beautiful things
2021 Japanese CD reissue
There are just two long tracks on this 1975 set, with Wilbur Ware on bass and Andrew Cyrille on drums. The leader opens the first with a seven-minute meditation, mixing soft-struck reveries with rushing runs, before Ware's bass adds rolling interjections over Cyrille's rattlesnake noises, and the piece steadily changes in mood as the drums gather to a storm.
The title track is a wistfully simple theme that goes from Dickerson's mercurial touch over a low percussion rumble to a freewheeling three-way jam. It's an unadorned venture of monastic purity, but if this were the unsung Dickerson's only epitaph, it would be a triumphant one.
