brought Medeski, Martin & Wood together. As a composer/arranger, he has recorded several visionary (if often overlooked) large ensemble LPs, most notably When Elephants Dream of Music (1982). On this album, Moses brings together Miles Davis-style Fusion, Gil Evans-esque horn arrangements, and Charles Mingus-inspired romanticism, meanwhile adding layers of ethnic percussion, dream-like vibes and marimbas, and even a choir of snoring voices; subsequent albums for Gramavision show a similar innovativeness, charm and subtle sense of humor. While Moses was quiet for much of the '90s, he seems poised for a renaissance both via a recent recording (Nishoma) and the reissue of some of his older LPs on MMW drummer Billy Martin's Amulet label. - Will York]]> http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.16770&rws=%2Fjazz%2Fbig-band%2Fmodern-big-band%2Fartist-chart.rss Modern Big Band Fri, 26 Sep 2008 12:57:09 -0700 Top Modern Big Band Artists on Rhapsody Online art.16770 art.16770 Joe Gallant & Illuminati art.16770 http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.16770&rws=%2Fjazz%2Fbig-band%2Fmodern-big-band%2Fartist-chart.rss http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.16770&variant=data&rws=%2Fjazz%2Fbig-band%2Fmodern-big-band%2Fartist-chart.rss Terrapin features a guest vocal cameo by basketball's Bill Walton. - Will York]]>
