"Great music from a super group"
Rootstime, 01-8-2022With Swing On This, the all-star quintet Opus 5 presents its fifth Criss Cross album, and first since 2015, when Criss-Cross released Tickle [Criss 1394, which itself was preceded – in backwards chronology – by Progression [Criss 1383], Pentasonic [Criss 1351], and Introducing Opus 5 [Criss 1339], each recorded a year apart. The “all star” sobriquet is not an exaggeration – the collective discographies of trumpeter Alex Sipiagin, tenor saxophonist Seamus Blake, pianist David Kikoski, bassist Boris Kozlov, and drummer Donald Edwards, all international first-callers, total more than 30 Criss Cross leader dates.
