     This effort offers 14 solid tracks that make you want to start drinkin' early and poundin' a few pool balls into some holes. 10 of the 14 songs we're written by Nick Moss with complimentary tracks by such greats as Muddy Waters and Freddy King. Track number 4 sums up the flavor of the entire offering in an instrumental called Arrowmaker Pass brings an almost comical a feel with a emphasis on back-beat, some strong distorted guitar and a honky tonk piano in the background. Overall, you get the experience of a gifted guitar player, wonderful arranger, terrific band and solid songwriting. Nick's dues with Jimmy Rogers, the Legendary Blues Band and others have paid off with this CD. Say, I've got a new plan: Take this with you, crank it up, crack a Budweiser, light a cigarette and grab the pool cue, then you'll be ready for Nick Moss and the Flip Tops!

     Trumpeter/composer/bandleader Charles Tolliver co-founded the Strata-East label with pianist Stanley Cowell, in 1971, but it's been a long time since we heard his underappreciated genius. This CD falls into the "where have you been?" category. It features a big band that includes Cowell, pianist Robert Glasper, saxophonist Billy Harper, bassist Cecil McBee, and drummer Victor Lewis. Save for a Gil Fuller-like rendition of Thelonious Monk's "'Round Midnight," the remaining six tracks are penned by the leader. Picking up from his big band charts from the 70s, this ensemble, driven by Tolliver's bravura Hub-toned trumpet lines, swings and sings with a propulsive, pan-generational sound. "Rejoicin'" is a spirited waltz, contrasted by the evocatively voiced, Trane-style "Mournin' Variations" and the Latin-tinged bopper "Suspicion," with Tolliver's son Ched on guitar. Tolliver may have been out of sight, but he certainly wasn't out of swing. Eugene Holley, Jr.
