about

By Clifford Allen, New York City Jazz Record August 2015:

"One Dane, tenor saxophonist Carsten Meinert, recorded a stunning and raw homage to Coltrane as To You in 1968-69, releasing it privately on his own M.S. imprint; once he began working as a producer for the tiny Spectator label (home of a number of obscure Danish psych and prog releases), it was rereleased, though even that version is exceedingly rare. This fully authorized reissue is the material’s first appearance on CD, replete with four extra tracks. Meinert’s tenor, steely and folksy with hints of Gato Barbieri and Pharoah Sanders, is more tart in execution than Coltrane, but looks in his direction. On a program of originals by bandmembers and powerful covers of countryman Otto Francker’s “Dansevise” and Coltrane’s “Naima” and “The Promise”, Meinert’s group stamps itself out firmly in the mold of aggressive, lyrical postbop and, while certainly nodding towards American forebears, the music is warm, raw and of a compelling piece. Pianist Ole Matthiesen’s angular, resonant warble provides a shifting harmonic block for the leader’s blistering runs while bassist Henrik Hove and the excellent drummer Ole Streenberg continually stoke the flames. This reissue fills in a few important cracks in our knowledge of modern Scandinavian jazz, as well as looking and sounding quite crisp."
