Tom Harrel: The Time of the Sun (2011)

Written By Hourpost on Wednesday, August 17, 2011 | 1:50 AM

On The Time of the Sun, Tom and his quintet confirm their place at the top of the post-bop mainstream. Of course, Harrell's often beautiful, always rigorous solos are to the fore but he allows each member of his band to shine and nobody is relegated to second fiddle. Whether it be on ballads or driving pieces, the group's expositions, interactions and song development is exuberant and extensive, devoid of gimmicks and are delivered in an energetic, yet disciplined and sophisticated manner.
