Performer Notes:

• Additional personnel: Les Claypool, Bernie Worrell.
• A mature third statement from the Bay Area octet, Vinyls Flea Market dances between genres with aplomb, successfully integrating worldbeat, dub, salsa, funk, and rock. The bands cross-stylistic statements remain surprisingly cognizant of the genres original intentions. Perhaps most impressive, however, are the transitions from piece to piece, and style to style (such as the movement from "Flea Market Dub" to "A¤o Nuevo," which doesnt sound so much like an attempt at a live segue -- as transitions on albums tend to -- but a natural progression within the music). Equally impressive, if only from a gimmicky point of view, is the bands laid-back reggae arrangement of George Gershwins "Summertime" (which morphs into the chaotically pretty "The Code Is Cold"). Granted, the band still moves into adult contemporary territory sometimes (albeit while remaining instrumental), such as on the maudlin "Remember." The band receives some high-profile help, with P-Funk and occasional Talking Heads keyboardist Bernie Worrell contributing on three tracks, and Primus/Frog Brigade leader/bassist Les Claypol joining in (as well as co-writing) "Bottom Feeder." Michael Rizzas vibraphone arrangements lend a warmth throughout the album. ~ Jesse Jarnow
