Album DescriptionSticks, bows and strings embrace, enmesh and encircle, simultaneous support and entrapment necessitating raging love, the forceful play of willing and wise men whose growth defies enforced apathy and brutal stagnation - as, with humility and certainty. You can hear the years of experience between the musicians as they effortlessly interweave drums and bass into a singular thought. Bassist, violinist and vocalist Henry Grimes and drummer Rashied Ali approach The Ritual. This veteran duo was recorded live at WKCR studios, Columbia University in 2007.
