INFO:
“ “Bäbi", another impossibly hard-to-find album on the IPS label, is a ferocious three-movement blowout recorded live in March 1976. Though Doyle claims the piece "was eight or nine years in the making – we talked about it for a long time..", the raw, tribal power of Graves and Doyle trading war cries is blood curdling, and the audience reaction near ecstatic.”
“Rather than extend his own innovations outward, Graves has gone within to pursue his cultural heritage. Babi is about ceremony and ritual, less a musical performance than a recorded event. Graves’ playing is as powerful as ever, but there’s less subtlety, shading, nuance, and a lot more straightforward rhythmic propulsion, often tied to a specific (repetitive) rhythmic patterns. The horns scream, shout, and cry in log, joyous tones, both extending to the heavens and setting a context for Graves’ more grounded rhythmic pulsations. The energy level throughout is high as a kite, and – of course – there’s the obligatory poor recording quality and balance.”
