The music, composed variously by members of the band, swells with swirling reeds—clarinet, bass clarinet, baritone sax, cello/bass/guitar, & Granelli’s drums. It blows moody & cool around Eckert’s words like a prairie fog; or chugs into a reedy bump & grind on “Just Angels,” a tale that takes us into a bygone “Godforsaken den of inequity.” Sandhill Reunion is unlike anything I’ve heard, but the mood it draws—going back more than 30 years—is the same as that of Bob Dylan’s John Wesley Harding or the Band’s The Band : odd, folksy, sometimes surreal tales, very American in nature, told with a simple eloquence entwined with superb yet understated musicianship. An odd, poignant masterpiece.
