Luc Houtkamp- In Chicago (CD)
This disc represents the first American release for Dutch saxophonist Luc Houtkamp. Here, he appears with Chicago stalwarts Kent Kessler - double bass and Michael Zerang - drums in a 1997 studio date. Liner notes by Ken Vandermark. Houtkamp often showcases and aural dictionary of multiphonics complete with echoing tongue slaps, colored hissing and speedy key pops. Imagine Archie Shepp's slurred buzz playing a version of "Yakity Sax" and you'll come up with how he sounds on some tracks. Other times Houtkamp produces heavy, unaccompanied split tones for several unrelieved minutes.
Tracklist:
- Pershing Ballroom Jump
- Jug (Without Dodo)
- Flow Chart
- New Wabash
- Who Is Claude McLin?
- Richard Dvis at Dusable
- Sate Street Blues
