by Lawrence Peryer
This episode of Rotations uses jazz as a spine but refuses to stay on it. We start with Collin Walcott's sitar-laced ECM reverie and Max Roach's 1968 post-bop intensity, move on to Bobby Previte's long-awaited return to small band writing and Randy Weston's luminous live performance at Montreux.
