1964. Jazz's chords had been all mined out; modal territory was pretty well mapped, jazz shark's manifest destiny says "keep swimming" - there's still some notes never played out there!
But the diminishing returns are kicking in, like the discovery of a new atomic element that only exists if you point a bunch of magnets justso - this is lurching, atonal, erratic, hopscotching along a negative space Goofus world of a beat and scale.
I'm not that desperate yet, the good stuff still gives me enough of a thrill 2.5/5
