So what do we have thirty years later? Village Mothership is a vibrant and
resonant recording that is as much jazz as it is not jazz. It is three
freewheeling, co-equal musicians improvising, pulling music out of thin
air. Correction, not out of thin air, but music drawn from decades of
interaction and exchange. Where thirty years ago listeners struggled to
identify Shipp's influences, often citing Cecil Taylor, Lennie Tristano, Andrew
Hill, plus Debussy, today we acknowledge the musical lexicon that is Matthew
Shipp's music. Combining the pianist with two other free spirts, music happens
albeit outside traditional roles for their respective instruments. Dickey's
drumming is expressed quite often as commentary, as he is in conversation with
Parker and Shipp. The solo he opens the title track with is prayer-like,
pausing as if he were a horn player taking a breath. When Shipp and Parker
join, there is a rush of sound as if the trio was capturing a horse that has
broken through a fence. Once collared, they ride that horse with a kind of
loosened swing. Elsewhere the quiet meditation of "Nothingness" opens into an
ever expanding universe and the introspective "Nothing & A Thing" pulls that
universe back into a grain of sand.
