The tenor saxophonist James Brandon Lewis proves that, with applied passion and
purpose of expression, free jazz is still capable of sending a few bracing
chills down your spine. Given the tradition that Lewis and other younger
players now draw upon, it’s not surprising that “Jesup Wagon” can call to mind
such sixties masterworks of open improvisation as Don Cherry’s “Complete
Communion.” But Lewis has his own fervid tale to tell, as does his ardent foil,
the cornettist Kirk Knuffke. (The drummer Chad Taylor, the cellist Christopher
Hoffman, and the ubiquitous bassist William Parker bulk up the spirited Red
Lily Quintet.) Although a few pieces momentarily calm the torrent, the majority
attempt to upturn the ground, confirming that the free-jazz idiom still has
plenty of juice.
