Emerging from the downtown scene in the early 1980s, the group mixes jazz tradition with punk energy and downtown experimentalism. Their music often blends composed arrangements and free improvisation, producing an angular, cinematic sound that highlights saxophone, trombone, guitar, piano and a tight rhythm section. Over time they built a reputation for theatrical instrumental pieces that draw on global rhythms and a playful yet edgy sensibility.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVoice Of Chunk, released in 1989, captures the band in a late 1980s mode of adventurous composition and spirited improvisation. The record features ten tracks including \"Bob the Bob\" and the title piece \"Voice Of Chunk\", showcasing John Lurie on alto and soprano saxophone alongside Roy Nathanson, Curtis Fowlkes, Marc Ribot, Evan Lurie, E.J. Rodriguez, Erik Sanko and Douglas Bowne. Arrangements move between concise melodic themes and freer sections, with touches of world rhythm and angular counterpoint. This album stands as a strong example of the group’s adventurous approach to jazz and downtown experimental music.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePersonnel: John Lurie - Alto and Soprano Saxophone; Roy Nathanson - Alto Soprano and Tenor Saxophone; Curtis Fowlkes - Trombone; Marc Ribot - Guitar, Trumpet; Evan Lurie - Piano; E.J.
