Gary Topper & Symmetry - The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy LP

Memphis Flyer's Alex Greene:
The end result? A bewitchingly eclectic sound most comparable, in my hearing, to Gil Evans’ ’70s masterpieces like Where Flamingos Fly: powerful beats, skewed melodies, the grooviest funk rendered with intriguing chords, horn punches and pads, intricate melodies, with detours through New Orleans and beatnik dives, all sprinkled with superlative reed, brass, guitar, piano, and synth soloing. It’s captivating, utterly unlike any other music being created in Memphis now, and, in a way, the fruit of seeds sown way back in those Central High School days.
