Like saxophonist John Coltrane, who this book is dedicated to, Will Alexander improvises his way through noise and chaos to explore the furthest reaches of his source material and thought process. And sometimes, although I love the late music of Coltrane, I can't but help be reminded of Miles Davis' retort in response to Coltrane's extended soloing: 'Why don't you try taking the horn out of your mouth?'
