Customer Reviews of Decoy
don't forget the bass player yeah, this album is all that and a pack of smokes and Miles is awesome and John Scofield is awesome and the pre-Tonight Show Branford is awesome, too tra la la la la. But don't forget Daryl "The Munch" Jones gives incredible performances on every track. If you really want to study the pocket, this is where it's at.
Excellent...
DECOY marks a milestone in Miles' thinking since returning to the jazz wars, and the trumpeter's keyboard abstractions over Jones' Kraftwerk-like bass groove on "Freaky Deaky" offers clues as to the style of spontaneous orchestration and interplay he wanted. Co-producer/keyboardist Robert Irving's title track depicts an opulent canvas of inter-connected modes, all doing a wheeling dance around Jones' spacious, behind-the-beat bass pulse; "Robot 415" is an Afro-Techno miniature; and "Code M.D." offers slick big band synth flourishes and contrasting rhythmic accents over a swampy, post-modern brand of southern funk. Throughout DECOY, Scofield's deft harmonic intuition and sure feel for boppish blues lines help set the plate for the trumpeter's stabbing upper register declamations and oblique melodies. And as a co-composer, Scofield helps distill Miles' `80s brew of ethnic shadings, funky polyrhythms, Gil Evans-styled keyboard colors...and the blues. Check out how his agitated counterpoint and skanky funk groove on "What It Is" inspire Miles to overdub a melange of trumpet commentaries, while "That's Right" showcases the band's elegant blues plumage. And the rousing "That's What Happened" suggests James Brown let loose in a particle collider, as a fragmented melody snakes its way through the carnage.
high marks
I've always felt this album was cohesive, exciting, musical. I liked Miles' new language.
I thought it was more exciting than Tutu.
More cohesive than the Man With the Horn
And more interesting on every level than You're Under Arrest.
And it seems like a lot of people probably agree with that assessment.. I think very highly of this CD. Strangely though, it seems like a lot of professional jazz critics lump this one in the same dustbin with You're Under Arrest.
