If you wish to hear this Stroke of Midnight project as an inner-city concept cycle, well that’s my leaning as well, and the intro Midterm serves as an admonitory warning to have no preconceptions as, with RJ’s work (and in his own words), there are “no rules followed” in what turns out to be a very cohesive flow of sounds dragging trad jazz and its later West Coast mello–hipswing into a new light.
