"All hail the mighty Revolutionary Snake Ensemble. They have blessed us with another great record of jazz that you have to dance to, but without losing the complexity and sophistication of the music itself. There's some Sun Ra, some New Orleans second line, some Afrobeat, some Zappa, and other mystical ingredients that combine into a musical spell that will envelop the listener. This is jazz for young and old and new and veteran." - David Kunian, curator, New Orleans Jazz Museum * The ouroboros, a serpent swallowing it's own tail, is an ancient symbol of infinity and the cyclical nature of life, death, and rebirth. The omnivorous Revolutionary Snake Ensemble isn't quite eternal, but the brass-powered Boston combo devoirs and reinvents a panoply of irresistible grooves, and with Serpentine the sextet is poised to gracefully undulate into it's fifth decade. * As NYC Jazz Record noted, the group has earned a devoted following with "it's unique and somewhat twisted twist on the New Orleans brass band tradition... hard-partying avant-funk, with boisterous soloing." Ken Field - also saxophone & flute Tom Hall - tenor saxophone Dave Harris - trombone & tuba Phil Neighbors - drums Blake Newman - acoustic bass Jerry Sabatini - trumpet
