Notes: Medeski, Scofield, Martin & Wood: John Scofield (guitar); John Medeski (keyboards); Chris Wood (bass instrument); Billy Martin (drums, percussion). 2006's OUT LOUDER marks the second collaboration between New York's downtown avant-groove trio Medeski, Martin & Wood and guitar giant John Scofield. The band backed Scofield on his 1997 outing A GO GO, but the results here surpass even the scintillating outcome of their first meeting. With musicianship of this caliber, however, and a collective sensibility that favors experimentation, genre-blending, and surprise, it's easy to expect great things. OUT LOUDER serves up a respectable amount of MMW's much-loved funk-based vibe, especially on tunes like the opener, "Little Walter Rides Again," and "Tootie Ma is a Big Fine Thing," which work bluesy, New Orleans-styled grooves to crackling effect. But the vast range of the artists' taste is also evident, from Miles-inspired rock fusion to Ornette Coleman-tinged free jazz to transformed covers of tunes by the Beatles and Peter Tosh. Adventurous, textured, and accessible, OUT LOUDER is a heady and fun recording that advances the already sterling reputations of its participants.
Down Beat (p.88) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "The disc serves as a jamming fun time of dance-friendly excursions, sonically pleasing FX'd textures and the requisite unpredictable swerves and swoops that MMW typically delivers." JazzTimes (p.p.91) - "[T]he ethereal take on the Beatles' 'Julia' -- where Medeski holds static chords behind Scofield's elegant and expressive delivery of the vocal line -- is a musical epiphany of sorts."
