about

01 ) SNAGGLE #7 (8:19) by Nick Maclean

Solos by Max Forster - trumpet, Graeme Wallace - tenor

Snaggle #7 begins with a somewhat ominous, percolating bassline. The feeling of kinetic energy this establishes continues as the drums and keyboards layer in, creating a slow-burning backdrop for the horns, which enter with a bluesy melody. This melody unfolds in an unhurried manner as the rhythm section builds intensity underneath it, its languidness interspersed with some hard-edged soloing from guitarist Michael Murray. Maclean’s subtle organ work, meanwhile, is the glue that holds these contrasting elements together. Following a deliciously dark-toned and adventurous exploratory trumpet solo by Max Forster, a breakdown occurs that brings about an abrupt change in mood and tempo, driven by Maclean’s unaccompanied wah-wah Rhodes. Eventually, a press roll from drummer Tom Grosset brings the band back in, launching a seductively toned tenor saxophone solo by Graeme Wallace in the new, much slower tempo. Wallace builds strongly, peaking as the band seamlessly transitions back to the original tempo and groove, with a restatement of the main theme, followed by a final release into a moody synth and guitar duet.
