Product Description With a band name presciently stripped from the headlines, the term "dead cat bounce" denotes a small and brief recovery in the price of a sinking stock (as in "even a dead cat bounces"). Featuring four saxophones plus upright bass and drums, the group has been in existence since 1997 and this is their fourth album. Truly a gem of an ensemble, their music is an original blend of many things from the Jazz tradition and the present and ultimately they have the feel of the World Sax Quartet with a rhythm section that swings like Mingus! Review "Dead Cat Bounce does it all with exquisite writing, the subtle use of a bass-drum rhythm section and above all a definite sense of communication between the members that I am sure will be apparent to even the casual listener. These musicians are not just playing the music on the page, but listening and communing together." --Dave Liebman
