Erica Lindsay Quartet - Yes- Live At The Rosendale Café (2001)

Recorded live at our very own Rosendale Café, the Erica Lindsay Quartet checks in with a superb new release, "Yes." Lindsay (saxophone) along with Francesca Tanksley on piano, Otto Gardner bass and Bob Braye drums, explodes with the title track her Coltrane influences every-where. The dark "Dusk-Fall" has a sneaky, slinky almost espionage feel. "Gently" also has dark alley implications, while "Blues Up" simplifies things to three chords, without being simple. The prolonged excursion of "Gotta Get To It" is a highlight, as Lindsay searches and reaches for that special place. "Seriously" is hopeful and optimistic and everyone excels here. An inventive, emotional player with technique to die for, Lindsay and her quartet prove once again, live music is where the magic hap-pens. ~ David Malachowski, DailyFreeman.com.
