Description

 

“Phil Haynes has established a reputation as one of the top

drummers and composers of his generation.”

~ Jazz Ed Magazine

“Despite the fact that the album [In Concert] is not likely to be a ‘hit’ on the marketplace, it does merit musical comparison with Miles Davis’ all-time best-selling Kind of Blue (Columbia, 1959).”

“Led by Mr. Haynes . . . No Fast Food is a trio inspired by a spirit of collectivism and by the intrepid ethos of the 1970’s.  The band’s other members are Dave Liebman, on saxophones and flute, and Drew Gress, on bass; this booking comes on the heels of a representative double album, In Concert.”

~ The New York Times

 

 

“Phil Haynes and his No Fast Food bandmates are the kind of jazz musicians who make you realize that chopping the genre into subcategories is a pretty silly endeavor.  From tough, deep-pocket postbop to pure-sound improv, every option is in play for this exemplary trio.”

~ Time Out New York

“As someone who first was introduced to creative music in the late 1960’s . . . the music one hears on In Concert hearkens back to those nights in airless concert spaces or large churches, when the music would cut right through the listener, bounce off the walls, shock, soothe, and challenge everyone in the audience . . .

No Fast Food is a fine credo to live by.”

~ Step Tempest

2014 “Brush w/Phil”, by Ethan Van Buskirk

 

“A two disc set of all original material from drummer Haynes that evolves into ongoing lyrical conversations . . .  creates, deconstructs and reassembles tunes at will.  Dynamics move with analmost spatial grandeur . . . They just don’t make them like this anymore.

Ridiculously good – one of the two best trios since the legendary Elvin Jones trio.

“Phil Haynes!  

He swings hard like Elvin, has an acute sense of set sound and inventive figuration like Tony, and he plays with the others . . . A player who has soaked up the tradition and gives out with himself . . . within varying compositional structures for a program that never tires.

Get it if you can.  For Liebman.  For Gress.  And for Phil Haynes.”

~ Grego Edwards, Gapplegate Music Review
