The Enja Band was a short-lived co-op band featuring three up and coming artists who recorded regularly for Enja: Willie Williams on tenor and soprano, vibraphonist Gust Tsilis, and bassist Michael Formanek, plus pianist Uri Caine and drummer Cecil Brooks III. Each of the musicians contributes at least one original to the eight-song program, which contains such titles as "The Unnameable," "Snalking," and "The Duke and Mr. Strayhorn." The music is post-bop with plenty of explorative moments and fairly free improvising along with some hard swinging. All five of these stimulating musicians are heard in top form throughout this underrated but very worthwhile set.
