Tenor saxophone master Michael Brecker has shared the stage and studio with most every major drummer in modern music at one time or another. It was three very special stick-slingers, however, that Brecker chose to feature on TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE: the fiery Jeff "Tain" Watts, the inventive Bill Stewart, and the incomparable powerhouse Elvin Jones. Along with Brecker's muscular wail, guitar legend Pat Metheny and organ wizard Larry Goldings offer some stunning musical vehicles for these three outstanding percussionists.
It is Brecker's signature tenor tone and bravado that prominently conducts the proceedings and he is in fine form sparring with Jones on the waltzing opener "Arc of the Pendulum," complete with Elvin's signature loping gallop. Watts gives a commanding performance on the quirky "Dr. Slate" that offers some of the most rhythmically intricate ensemble work on the disc. Stewart is his usual amazing self on such tracks as the funky "Half Past Late" and "Renaissance Man," urging Brecker, Metheny, and Goldings onward with seemingly endless intensity. Elvin gets the closing remark with Brecker's "Outrance," another dancing groove that features exemplary playing by all.

Editorial Reviews
Ranked #6 Jazz Album in Downbeat Critics Poll 2000.
Down Beat (08/01/2000)

...easily Brecker's most satisfyingly and celebratory project to date, deeper and more incandescent....a dream date for Brecker as well as for his legion of fans.
JazzTimes (01/01/2000)

3 stars out of 5 - ...swinging lightly and beautifully with acoustic rhythm sections....digging a little deeper into the energy, agression and mathematical ability that helped him earn a reputation as the most advanced saxaphonist on the world...
Q (02/01/2000)

...travels a wide path between mainstream jazz and pop inflections with integrity and ease... - Rating: B+
Entertainment Weekly (12/03/1999)

4.5 out of 5 - ...displays the patentable Brecker style - deeply rooted in Coltrane, with an emphasis on high energy and involved improv patterns....a varied, appealing repertoire with no dearth of top drawer playing...
