Suite For Max Brown [Smoky Black LP]

Tortoise guitarist Jeff Parker built Suite For Max Brown (2020), dedicated to his mother, from loops, samples and live playing, much of it performed alone. The result blends spiritual jazz, hip-hop-inflected beats and gorgeous guitar, with his daughter Ruby Parker singing on 'Build a Nest', covers of John Coltrane's 'After the Rain' and Joe Henderson's 'Black Narcissus' (as 'Gnarciss'), and the warm, sprawling title piece.
