Formed 35 years ago as a post-Weather Report fusion band, Yellowjackets have shown remarkable staying power. Driven by founders keyboardist Russell Ferrante and drummer Will Kennedy, the music strongly features the tenor sax of Bob Minzter (a member for just 25 years, and familiar to many students through his series of sax study books), backed up by the bass guitar of Australian-born newcomer Dane Alderson. This latest collection foregoes featuring a special guest (Mike Stern, Robben Ford and Ambrose Akinmusire have all featured on Jackets CDs in the past decade) in favour of a focus on the group’s internal capacity for composition and performance. This collection of work was well worked on the road before the band went into the studio – most of the tunes featured at Yellowjackets dates at Ronnie Scott’s in the summer of 2015. This was a deliberate ploy to explore the music more fully rather than record a first impression (as sometimes happens with new material). It has paid off – the band sound at ease with the tunes and with each other, and the twists and turns sound very natural and well-sculpted. The album title, Cohearence, stems from this visit to London when Ferrante and Mintzer visited the Tate Modern and saw Gerhard Richter’s six-painting cycle of abstract work entitled Cage – Six Paintings, referencing avant-gardist John Cage and described as ‘a coherent group.’ Ferrante started thinking about coherence and connected it to the band’s joint work and camaraderie. The album starts on fairly safe fusion territory with Ferrante’s tune Golden State, inspired by the bustle of the I-5 freeway in California. Piano triplets give an insistent background which opens up into solo space for Mintzer, almost like seeing the big desert backgrounds before driving back into the next city and rumbling pulses once more. Mintzer’s tune Guarded Optimism follows, with a skipping tenor/synth lead line over deceptively slow-moving bass line which then explodes into high-speed swinging soloing. Mintzer also contributes a fine 6/8 groove on Inevitable Outcome, giving himself the chance to use an EWI wind controller to jockey with Ferrante’s synth. The album moves further from fusion territory as it progresses. Trane Changing offers a reharmonisation of Coltrane’s Giant Steps with a fine bass guitar solo from Alderson, while Eddie’s In The House turns funky in a fulsome way. Child’s Play (another Mintzer tune) is a delightful romp which definitely put a spring in my step walking towards the Tube station. A standout is the one non-original on the album, a stately and measured take on traditional American folk song Shenandoah with majestic simplicity offering a lovely contrast to the complexities which have preceded it. (Mark McKergow, LondonJazzNews)     Состав Russell Ferrante - piano, synths Bob Mintzer - saxophones, bass clarinet, flute, EWI Dane Alderson - electric bass William Kennedy - drums, synths "...это Post-Bop. Жакеты давно уже фьюжн, в чистом виде, не играют. Хэзлип, пока не ушёл, ещё хоть как-то пытался напоминать об истоках, но его уже нет. Кстати, альбом весьма наплохой, гораздо лучше предыдущего. Всё-таки Пасториус-младший ни идейно, ни по уровню не дотягивал до уровня Рассела с Бобом. Ошибкой было пригласить его в состав, ИМХО. В данном альбоме состав уже сбалансированный, что не могло не повлиять на звучание, разумеется, в лучшую сторону. Возможно, альбом интереснее слушается ещё и из-за стилевого разнообразия основных тем. Здесь и "мешанина" от Рассела - от практически Straight-Ahead в первой композиции, до Modern Creative в последней титульной. И "прямолинейный" боп в композициях Боба. И "лирические отступления" в джаз-фанк (от того же Ферранте) и фьюжн от Кеннеди, и даже вариации на тему Giant Steps Колтрейна. В общем, не скучно и, что называется, на одном дыхании." © simple.i
