In 1979 Max Roach founded MBoom, a group consisting of eight percussionists.
Their debut recording (which has been reissued on this Columbia CD) is far from
being a monotonous drum battle. In fact, through the utilization of a wide range
of instruments that include chimes, timbales, marimba, vibes, xylophone,
tympani, various bells and steel drums, there are quite a lot of melodies to be
heard during these nine performances (which are all group originals other than
Thelonious Monks Epistrophy). This is a particularly colorful set that is easily
recommended not only to jazz and percussion fans but to followers of World
music.~ Scott Yanow
