Bassist Chris Tarry Releases "Almost Certainly Dreaming"
November 23, 2007
Rest of the Story is one of the most strikingly original packages ever to pair written word with written note. - Bass Player Magazine
(Rest of the Story) is deftly crafted by musicians who transcend pigeonholes to simply be expressive and personal. - Ottawa Citizen
Not your average jazz CD, this one...this superb effort deserves wide recognition - Exclaim Magazine
Rest of the Story is an exercise in the art of the CD from one of jazz's top band leaders - Pop Matters
The stories are brilliantly crafted, and the music is deep, with a playfulness that cannot be denied. - Bass Frontiers Magazine
Almost Certainly Dreaming (2007):
Almost Certainly Dreaming finds bassist Chris Tarry's quintet in electrifyingly tight form! - Downbeat Magazine
One of the best jazz groups working today! - All About Jazz
ACD is Chris' masterpiece! - Bass Musician Magazine
A solid new album! - New York Times
Sorry to be Strange (2005):
Tarry's excellent American debut (Sorry to be Strange) is a resonant, single-minded bit of contemporary jazz … Tarry's terrain is a muscular and acrobatic electric bass, a world where deep rock might saddle to deep swing in a moment
