"The experimentations taking shape in jazz at the end of the '60s with
Miles Davis
leading the pack pushed jazz in many new directions. Released six months after
Bitches Brew
,
Electric Byrd
shows legendary hard bop Detroit trumpet player
Donald Byrd
was listening to, but not necessarily following concurrent paths. Backed by a diverse group of players including hard bop legends with Brazilians
Moreira
and
Pascoal
lending a fresh sound. Shimmering percussion, wind instruments and electric piano and guitar set the backdrop for Byrd's dramatic flight into a psychedelic space with his echo-laden trumpet blasts. The album ends on a rollocking funk featuring his full band that foreshadows the gold he would soon mine with the
Mizell Brothers
on his string of hit records recorded shortly after. A true glimpse of an artist in transition, it would be difficult to find a more perfect sounding record."
