''Storyline'' is an album by American jazz trumpeter Raphe Malik featuring a trio with bassist Cecil McBee and drummer Codaryl "Cody" Moffett, which was recorded in 1999 and released on the Boxholder label. ==Reception== In his review for AllMusic, Thom Jurek states "This is as fine a trumpet disc as one is likely to find amid the current crop, and an auspicious coming together of three fine soloists for the purpose of exploring the darker, richer, and more purple edges of the blues." ''The Penguin Guide to Jazz'' notes "Malik demonstrates his deep familiarity with blues and jazz traditions on 'Minimal Blue', which uses a basic 12-bar to generate a complex group improvisation. Other tunes, like 'First Valve Blues' and 'The Hard Way', follow a similar procedure with equal effect, but there is a law of diminishing returns on this fine record and it is probably best sampled a track or two at a time."〔 〕 The All About Jazz review by Robert Spencer says about Malik "He is a superb, incendiary performer who should be more widely heard. Let's hope this extraordinary disc will win him some of that recognition."〔Spencer, Robert (''Storyline'' review ) at All About Jazz〕 In his review for ''JazzTimes'' Christopher Porter describes the album as "A genuinely powerful record that reaches out to the far side of improvised music without getting lost there."〔Porter, Christopher (''Storyline'' review ) at ''JazzTimes''〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Storyline (Raphe Malik album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
