Ancient future

"A Los Angeles institution known for his work with Pharoah Sanders, Horace Tapscott and Kamasi Washington, Trible is enjoying a real purple patch. 'Ancient Future' feels much looser than recent excursion with Cosmic Vibrations and Khalil El'Zabar's Ethnic Heritage Ensemble, predicated on Trible's chemistry with a quartet propelled by André Gouché's funky electric bass ... [There is a] from-the-gut duet with Georgia Anne Muldrow (...) [and a] wonderfully laid-back guest turn [by Kamasi Washington], but Trible's twangy, rich baritone - part Leon Thomas, part Barry White - sounds more authoritative here than ever".
