"When Time Out New York proclaimed William Parker one of 'the 50 greatest New York Musicians of all time' this Spring, it was not just because he is 'the most consistently brilliant free jazz bassist of all time' (Village Voice). Corn Meal Dance makes his multi-faceted talents as bassist, composer, poet, bandleader and songwriter abundantly clear. Raining On The Moon is the group which seamlessly fuses all of his prodigious gifts -- his long-standing quartet with Hamid Drake, Rob Brown, Lewis Barnes is here exquisitely augmented by singer Leena Conquest once again, and pianist Eri Yamamoto for the first time -- perfect harmonic expansion for the song-craft. William Parker's soul-nourishing poetry and supremely catchy melodies are brought to scintillating life by a group featuring some of the finest improvisers in the world. Corn Meal Dance is an incomparable and uncompromising work that AUM Fidelity is deeply honored to present; the release of this wonderful record is how AUM Fidelity is celebrating its 10th anniversary! Recorded, mixed and mastered in 24 bit digital to AUM Fidelity's highest standards. Packaged in jewel case with a beautiful 20-page booklet featuring William Parker's lyrics and liner notes by Greg Tate."
