Vandermark 5. Another chance to hear this performance by Chicago-based saxophonist and bandleader
Ken Vandermark. Although strongly influenced by the avant-garde jazz of Peter Brotzmann , Vandermark's compositions also use funk, rock and contemporary pop rhythms. His long-standing quintet comprises the cream of Chicago's new wave of improvisers: Kent Kessler (bass), Tim Mulvenna
(drums), Dave Rempis (alto and tenor saxophones) and Jeb Bishop (trombone). Producers Robert Abel and Kath Willgress
