At 24 years of age, tenor saxophonist Greene has other recordings for Chiaroscuro, or with trumpeter Darren Barrett ("Live @ Birdland-Cookin' in Midtown") but this CD is his major label debut. It shows that Greene has an interesting sound on his instrument: not at all the robust, full, deep-throated Rollins/Coltrane/Brecker style, but more of a thin, alto-like inflection. He's certainly steeped in the bop of Charlie Parker and the democratic notions of Art Blakey, for the music has a cooperative, team-oriented aesthetic. Barrett and trombonist Steven Davis are alongside Greene on the frontline, with pianist Aaron Goldberg, drummer Eric McPherson, and percussionist Kahlil Bell in the rhythm section. The bulk of the material, six of nine tracks, are post-boppish originals.
