Details: Amazon.ca Redman sees Passage Of Time as a narrative continuum, or suite. There's a sense that the Californian tenorman is reflecting on his productive decade-long stretch with Warners, attempting to make a weighty statement on the story so far. Redman wrote and produced all of the music, assisted by his regular team of Aaron Goldberg (piano), Reuben Rogers (bass) and Gregory Hutchinson (drums). The whole sequence opens with "Before", Redman's lone tenor flutter almost sounding like a John Surman solo, all breathily deep vibrations and scampering progressions. Each number seamlessly merges into the next, with "Phase II" picking up a funky limp, switching from one time-frame to another, then "Our Minuet" enjoying a mid-point blues-dappled tenor solo and ending with a solo bass rumination. It's all about the steady stream, not surprise interjections or upturned textures, and this approach can have its drawbacks by the time we reach tracks 5 and 6. Luckily, the next cut, "Enemies Within", arrives in engagingly tentative spurts, leaving halting spaces before embarking on a typically quicksilver Redman work-out.
