Paul Dunmall Quartet
Underground Underground
(Slam)
IN the brief sleeve notes to south Londoner Paul Dunmall’s Quartet recording Underground Underground, the saxophonist, born in 1953, describes how the foursome was originally formed to create a tribute to John Coltrane’s momentous Sun Ship album of 1965, as a commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the great hornman’s death.
Rather than reprise the tracks from Sun Ship, Dunmall decided “to write some heads in the same vein as Sun Ship, so we could still capture that intensity and play with that Coltrane spirit but make it our own thing.”
