This 2007 Mosaic Records reissue gathers Duke Ellington's Spacemen sessions, material that bridges Ellington's later creative period with the post-bop currents of the 1960s and beyond. The sessions capture Ellington's enduring ability to evolve—his compositions remain unmistakably his own, but played with the looser harmonic sensibility of a new generation. The ensemble work is immaculate, and there's an experimental openness that gives these sessions genuine atmosphere. A chance to hear Ellington's music through a different lens without sacrificing the depth of his writing.
