Atmospheric and serpentine, the two-disc As We Speak finds electric
fretless bassist Mark Egan leading his trio through a series of
enigmatic and propulsive original songs. An acolyte of the late great
bassist Jaco Pastorious, Egan has a lithe touch on his instrument, and
tracks such as the leadoff "Spirals" evince a hypnotic, fusion-esque
aesthetic. Joining Egan here are the equally superb jazz giants
guitarist John Abercrombie and drummer Danny Gottlieb. These are three
technical dynamos as well as artists sensitive to creative group
interplay. Cuts such as "Dream Sequence" showcase this as Abercrombie
and Egan both lay down harmonic lines against each other allowing
Gottlieb to fill in the background with organic cymbal flourishes and
flickering drum patterns. Cinematic and expansive, As We Speak has a
real spark of intimacy and is a truly engaging work. Matt Collar
