New York Calling


New York Calling is an album by saxophonist Jackie McLean and the Cosmic Brotherhood recorded in 1974 and released on the SteepleChase label.

Reception

The Allmusic review by Jim Todd stated "Jackie McLean's band on New York Calling, the Cosmic Brotherhood, plays with uncompromising passion, fury, and intelligence. The group, a generation younger than the leader, has a sound that is definitive '70s advanced hard bop....It's to McLean's credit that the date bears the stamp of his band's artistry as much as it does his own".
