Idris Muhammad • Peace And Rhythm

 



Review
by Stewart Mason
Parts of the second solo album by Prestige Records' house drummer, Idris Muhammad, are an even poppier affair than Black Rhythm Revolution, with a mellow soul-jazz feel replacing the slight Latin tinge of the earlier album. Side one is downright crossover, with its two pieces of positive-thinking pop (the lyrics, by Muhammad, are sung by his wife, Sakinah Muhammad) separated by a loose but faithful take on Wilson Pickett's "Don't Knock My Love." That's just side one, though. Side two is something much weirder and far more interesting. "The Peace and Rhythm Suite" is a side-long suite consisting of two long, spacy compositions that predate the ambient house scene by nearly two decades yet sound entirely of a piece with that style. Long, droning, sustained chords on a variety of wind and reed instruments float above Muhammad's percussion, which ebbs and flows in a free, almost arrhythmic way through most of the piece. Fans of the Orb or Brian Eno will find it an old hat, but for early-'70s jazz, this was downright revolutionary.

Reseña
por Stewart Mason
Algunas partes del segundo álbum en solitario del batería de la casa Prestige Records, Idris Muhammad, son un asunto aún más pop que Black Rhythm Revolution, con un suave aire de soul-jazz que sustituye al ligero tinte latino del álbum anterior. La primera cara es francamente crossover, con sus dos piezas de pop positivo (las letras, de Muhammad, las canta su mujer, Sakinah Muhammad) separadas por una versión suelta pero fiel de "Don't Knock My Love" de Wilson Pickett. Pero eso es sólo la primera cara. La segunda cara es algo mucho más extraño e interesante. "The Peace and Rhythm Suite" es una larga suite lateral formada por dos composiciones largas y espaciadas que preceden a la escena ambient house en casi dos décadas, pero que suenan totalmente a ese estilo. Largos y zumbantes acordes sostenidos en una variedad de instrumentos de viento y lengüeta flotan sobre la percusión de Muhammad, que fluye y refluye de forma libre, casi arrítmica, durante la mayor parte de la pieza. A los fans de The Orb o Brian Eno les parecerá algo anticuado, pero para el jazz de principios de los 70, esto era francamente revolucionario.
