Beautiful Existence
Beautiful Existence is an album by American jazz guitarist Joe Morris, which was recorded in 2004 and released on the Portuguese Clean Feed label. He leads a new quartet consisting of the trio with whom he recorded Age of Everything with the addition of alto saxophonist Jim Hobbs.[1] Reception
In his review for AllMusic, Steve Loewy states " Morris is a superb composer, too, as he dishes up generally simple though piercing melodies, some of which, such as the slower, yet bubbly Ornette Coleman-influenced 'Some Good' are infused with an attractive bluesy tinge."[2] The Penguin Guide to Jazz states "This is a powerful statement, with a kind of chastened beauty, from a label that seems determined to catch anything new and exciting in contemporary music on the fly."[3] The All About Jazz review by Troy Collins says "With hauntingly atmospheric modal grooves, tender, reflective ballads and invigorating, angular free bop, Morris's singular talents as a guitarist have never been more evident."[4] Track listing
