This album features Satoko Fujiis long-standing trio (with bassist Mark Dresser
and drummer Jim Black), with the addition of her husband and longtime musical
partner Natsuki Tamura on trumpet. Recorded live on July 28, 2004, this set is
slightly disappointing. First of all, after six studio albums, the trio was due
for a live recording, so fans might not agree with Tamuras presence, especially
since the only track he sits out is Illusion Suite, a piece still too fresh to
have matured into something significantly different -- in fact, Tamuras input
would have been much welcome on that rather weak and overlong composition.
However, fans of Tamura might feel frustrated by the fact that with its 36
minutes, Illusion Suite accounts for half of the album, which means that the
trumpeter is only featured on the other half. That being said, if the title
suite from the groups previous disc offers little new, the renditions of Ninepin
(now Fujiis most recorded piece) and Looking Out of the Window (an oldie from
the groups debut album) are worth the price of admission. They are reinvented
almost from the ground up, with Tamura enriching the groups palette. The same
applies to An Insane Scheme, also first released on the album Illusion Suite,
but here featuring Tamura inspiring Fujii, Dresser, and Black to approach the
tune more freely and drive it elsewhere. There is clearly a redundancy factor
between this album and Illusion Suite, so casual listeners might want to choose
only one of them and explore the rest of the groups discography.~François
