Chris Potter: The Session Musicians

Chris Potter: The Session Musicians

The post-bop sax man's elastic sense of rhythm enables him to slide into many settings. Trumpeter Dave Douglas' “Millennium Bug” calls for Potter's tangled lines to buck against its gritty swing, and the funk fusion piece “Aziza Dance” demands his groove-minded stabs and slurs. On Joey Alexander's “Freedom Jazz Dance,” Potter unmoors his tenor from the rhythm to help usher in the pianist's swift, swirling flights.
