Using visual, audio, and narrative score structures, jazz bassist Tom Abbs built his Lost And Found album by randomly pairing 22 musical fragments, producing music that is always unpredictable and often intoxicating.

Details:
In his third outing leading the Frequency Response group, Tom Abbs (Yuganaut, Cooper-Moore's Triptych Myth, Andrew Lamb Trio) takes you through a mesmerizing mix of free-jazz, groove, third wave and noise. From the heart wrenching title track "Lost," which conjures the spirit of Albert Alyer, to the Afro-rhythms and pentatonic melodies of the title track "Found," the music flows from one spectrum to another with ease. Harnessing the power of percussionist Chad Taylor (Chicago Underground, Mark Ribot's Spiritual Unity Band), violinist Jean Cook (Gena Rowlands Band, Ida), and reed man Brian Settles (Tomas Fujiwara & The Hook Up), Abbs' haunting compositions will pull at your heart strings and make you want to dance.
Another review:
A consistently interesting bassist as well as an adept manipulator of the cello and tuba, Tom Abbs combines instrumental savvy with a keen ear for instrumentation and musical space. His recordings as bandleader promise free sojourns that have been carefully thought out, with pacing, and a myriad of sound colors and textures brought about by the ever-shifting roles each band member takes on through the course of the program.
True to form, Tom Abbs & Frequency Response come through again with one of their strongest outings to date, Lost & Found (Engine). There are 18 short compositions that make use of free improv in controlled bursts, with the central thrust residing in the compositions themselves. The multifold instrumental variety available to the quartet comes out of the somewhat unusual combination of drums (Chad Taylor), violin (Jean Cook), tenor, soprano and flute (Brian Settles) and Tom on the instruments mentioned above. The compositions feature various permutations: strings versus reeds and drums, for example, or bass, sax and drums both disjoined and sounding in a kind of unison.
Each piece is different, distinct and put together well. This is by no means a typical free date. Chamber-music like interplay alternates with impassioned exertion. Mr. Abbs is a man to watch, or no, a man to LISTEN TO. Do that with this one and you'll be rewarded with a set that never flags. It provokes, soothes, swings, stabs, tickles and ruminates alternately. And it is never dull. Recommended.
