Some words on this issue: ART ENSEMBLE OF CHICAGO: “Phase One” (America – AM-6116) Original 1st France only pressing. To these ears, “Phase One” is prime time Art Ensemble of Chicago material, making it one of the headiest albums by them, rubbing shoulders with “Stance a Sophie” and “People in Sorrow”. The whole affair, which consists out of two sidelong tracks is a brilliant mix of dusty catatonic noise and ear-deafening silences making it to walk the razor’s edge between crystal clear avant-garde compositions and heated free jazz eruptions. The track "Ohnedaruth" builds slowly with a variety of percussion, breathing out a remarkable sense of sound and space before elapsing into a more reed-based approach that leads to the other sidelong head spinner "Lebert Aaly" – the group's brilliant tribute to the late Albert Ayler! The sound the band breathes into existence is incredibly deep and multi-layered with cosmic tonalities and bridges the gap successfully like no other ensemble between fire music and atonal free form avant-garde outings.
