It is 22 years since saxophonist Chris Bowden released his great ‘Time Capsule’ set on Soul Jazz. ‘Unlikely Being’ is his third release and explores elements of contemporary Jazz. ‘New Crobuzon’ is a lengthy, diverse, innovative and interesting piece. There are elements of late Blue Note Hancock to the driving ‘We Are Alive’ and a gritty funkiness to the slower ‘Pollock Painting’. ‘Ridiculous Itinerary’ is another strong long track. A fine return for the British alto sax man.
