The Shoes of the Fisherman's Wife Are Some Jiveass Slippers - in the first few minutes I don't know if I am listening to Jazz album or a soundtrack to a B&W movie staring Jack Lemmon. Adagio ma non troppo - sounds like he is channeling Tchaikovsky, elevator music, then free Jazz and lounge music/ The Chill of Deathreminds me a little of Departure or some other thing else the Moody Blues did where they talk over music.
Like almost every album I think 'this should be a good album." But then it doesn't end up that way. Not terribly wrong to hate it, but then not enough to love it. I don't know if I shall return to the album for another listen or stick to my own Jazz musicians.
3/5
