EASTERN VIEW
David Sills

On his first album as a proper lead for Origin, saxophonist David Sills is taking the opportunity to reflect upon his time in “The City" after a stay in New York (though his own usual locale is also a major city, LA has a different vibe to say the least). The all-original compositions here take a special effort to touch upon the New York aesthetic in many ways, but offset the busyness somewhat with a light touch on the guitar, a particularly airy (dare one say West Coast) breath on the sax, a relaxed comping style on the organ. It's a pretty sweet affair, alternately relaxing and invigorating, and a large step beyond the Acoustic Jazz Quartet work Sills has previously done.
