about
Hession & Fell's first ever sax/bass/drums trio; originally released on cassette in 1990 (Bruce's Fingers BFC 23).
---------- press quotes ----------
"Trio music of great passion and weight. This music truly has some of the power and danger of Duke Ellington, Charles Mingus and John Coltrane." Ben Watson YORKSHIRE POST
"Tersely confrontational, Hession an explosive, sometimes demented percussionist, Wharf working through arid, bleak registers of his chosen horns or tearing across structural boundaries." THE PENGUIN GUIDE TO JAZZ ON CD, LP & CASSETTE
"Powerful, committed and expressive free jazz" AVANT

about
Hession / Wharf / Fell
Charles Wharf (reeds), Simon H. Fell (double bass) and Paul Hession (drumset) have been playing improvised music together
since 1988. Between 1988 and 1991, they played together a lot - then moved on to other things for a while. In 2000 they got back together again, and picked up a few threads.

I don't think I've ever experienced a more profound feeling of being guided by an unseen force than the day we recorded this 70-minute piece of complex and challenging music in one exhilarating take.
