The Divine Travels of James Brandon Lewis


Because I was greatly impressed by an avant-jazz record called Life in the Sugar Candle Mines (2013) by Black Host, a quintet led by drummer Gerald Cleaver, I went looking for other records on which Cleaver performs; one of them was James Brandon Lewis' Divine Travels (2014).

This is a powerful album that always manages to stand out as interesting and inventive stacked up against the Big Star, Black Sabbath, Jeremy Pelt and The Rosebuds (to name a few artists) in the shuffle sort on my iPod. Listen to it if you can. (I checked out a CD of Divine Travels from my library.)
