This CD finds trumpeter Jon Faddis shooting in all directions with uneven but sometimes colorful results. Faddis performs an orchestra piece ("High Fire") that has his high notes contrasting with the five lower brass. He wa-waas behind Vivian Cherry's blues singing on "Reckless Blues," performs a rather silly "Ahbeedunseedja," plays a faceless ballad ("Forevermore"), raps about Dizzy Gillespie on "Rapartee" and then the two muted trumpeters jam on a brief "Cherokee." "Dewey's Dance" is a dull and overlong tribute of sort to Miles Davis, "Squeezin'" is a relaxed original, "March That Thang" sounds like a funky marching band, "Dizzy Atmosphere" is fast but brief bop and "I Surrender All" closes the CD with a gospellish duet also including pianist James Williams. There are some good moments on the set but it is too erratic to be recommended very highly.~Scott Yanow
