Reader Reviews While the title of this review might be misleading to stick Ast- Pachora into Jazz Fusion, I chose to label it with this style of music primarily because of the supreme line chart writing and musical performence by all the players. I had not heard of Pachora before I took a gamble and bought this CD. Chris Speed is from The Claudia Quintet (who are INCREDIBLE!). The music is not hard edged nor whimpy. It has WONDERFUL festival type moods that are evoked with each spin! There are odd time signatures but you do not really notice them because the music is so richly textured with ethnic influences, awesome clarinet, percussion and drums of the caliber of old Trilok Gurtu, Tabla Beat Science, Bela Fleck, or any of the 1970's ECM artists. It is ensemble playing that is uncomprimised. The reeds are as fluid as Bennny Goodman yet as musically interesting as Ash Ra Temple or early Coltrane. This is out-of-print because it was released on Knitting Factory Records that went out of business, not from poor quality writing, recording technology, or anything but bad luck for that company. Get it while it is cheep! It is a stupendious spin!
