Flat-Out Jump Suite

Julius Hemphill Quartet

The quartet navigates complex themes with a fluidity that makes difficult passages appear simple. This 1980 recording serves as a prime example of the avant-garde movement of the early eighties.

By emphasizing the ensemble, the music creates a cohesive, evolving experience. It rewards those who listen with care to the way the quartet navigates between structured composition and wild, improvisational play.
