Dave Jackson & Wayne Rex, 8 & 10 March, BCN ImproFest 2018
Dave Jackson, alto sax; Wayne Rex, drums; at Albareda, 8 & 10 March 2018; BCN ImproFest 2018
Been very intrigued to hear/see this duo since their “First Offence / Sticks and Stones” release on Muteant Sounds. They didn’t disappoint. No surprise there then. Rex’s spot-on thumps and rumbles were perfectly balanced with more discreet tick-tacking around the kit’s stands and supporting structure, plus beautifully measured doses of cymbal. As for Jackson, there’s little doubt that few pull of stoat-strangling skronk with quite as much aplomb – always tuned into some abstract spiritual channel that most seek in vain. Pure, primitive ritual incantation. (Dave Foxall). https://davejackson.bandcamp.com/ https://muteantsoundsnetlabel.bandcam…
