Medeski Martin and Wood - Zaebos: The Book of Angels Vol. 11
(CD) Tzadik TZ7368, 2008-07-22

Info :
Focused, ecstatic and wildly improvisational, the trio of Medeski Martin and Wood is one of the most popular and vibrant instrumental ensembles of the last few decades, playing to packed houses from Budokan to Bonnaroo and back again. Original members of the earliest Masada units (reaching back to 1993), they are a natural choice to interpret the lyrical Book of Angels, and here return to the fold like three prodigal sons. Ten exhilarating and creative arrangements of Zorn compositions that alternately groove, lope, shred and burn with a fiery passion.
