In Touch (album)


In Touch is an album by James Blood Ulmer and George Adams' band Phalanx which was recorded in 1988 and released on the Japanese DIW label.

Reception

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow stated, "The performances dispense quickly with the opening themes except as abstract reminders of the original moods and emphasize both solo and group improvisations. Adams has his ferocious moments and Ulmer makes the ensembles quite crowded and intense while bassist Sirone and drummer Ali keep the group interactions quite stimulating. After a slow start, the fiery sounds result in some memorable music".
