O’s Notes: Australian born saxophonist/composer Jacam Manricks comes from a musical family and he has nurtured the DNA. Samadhi is his latest release, continuing in fine form. Manricks forms an exceptional quartet with pianist Joe Gilliam, bassist Matt Penman and drummer Clarence Penn. They play a soothing blend of mixed tempo, contemporary jazz. “Formant”, “Formula One”, “Schmaltz” and “Common Tone” are standouts in a strong session. Just sit back and enjoy it!
