"This 2017 live set from Brooklyn’s ShapeShifter Lab in 2017 joins Parker & pianist Cooper-Moore with the Ornette Coleman-esque alto saxist Rob Brown and the rumblingly dynamic drummer Hamid Drake. A five-part suite, Eternal Is the Voice of Love, opens as a caustically toned free-jazz sway, but the group’s ruggedly intuitive harmoniousness is always present. A long-postponed Parker bass hook sets off a bumping groove, the leader plays a quavering flute passage that borders on a spiritual, Drum & Bass Interlude pitches and rattles like an old train, and the title track launches a tramping rock backbeat for Brown to wail and circle around Parker’s lurching, hoarsely hollering repetition of the title words. This is music straight out of the rebellious sensibility of the 60s African-American jazz avant garde – but it’s pithily inviting, contemporary and always welcome."
