Review
This underaccorded gem in the Charles Mingus catalog introduces much of the group that made Mingus's mid-1970s quintet one of the great bassist's two or three best bands. Changes One and Changes Two have remained proof positive of the force packed by tenor saxophonist George Adams and pianist Don Pullen. It was 1973's Mingus Moves that introduced the pair, inaugurating a slamming, soulful band. "Canon" opens Moves with a meditative calm that seems to stretch across the entire session, during the shuffling blues of "Newcomer" and the jumping "Opus 4" alike. Doug Hammond and Honey Gordon make an exquisite vocal pair on "Moves," with the new Mingus band lineup forming a like-minded unit with quick bounce and fleet powers. Pullen makes the chromatic splashes, Adams the bluesy wails, and Dannie Richmond the crackling, well-kept time, all in wonderful tandem. --Andrew Bartlett
