Since his triumphant comeback, Henry Grimes has made up for lost time... now partnering Sun Ra alum saxophonist Marshall Allen for an unlikely duo tour bannered "Spaceship on the Highway." It became a quartet when it touched down at Chicago's HotHouse in March in front of a diverse crowd. The free-form summit was dominated by stratospheric eruptions from Allen's unfettered alto, mellifluity from his antiquated EWI, and cosmic poetry, backed with the tenor saxophonist's bluesy fills and colored with pipings by Ra from a cedarwood flute. Nevertheless, the night belonged to Grimes, whose customized space bass boomed beneath his lean, agile fingers. He knew exactly what to do. - Downbeat
