Jack DeJohnette's Special Edition is a group led by American jazz drummer/pianist Jack Dejohenette, who has played on numerous sessions with Miles Davis and Keith Jarrett, and has left many masterpieces on ECM. This album was released in 1984. The album features John Purcell(as,ss), David Murray(ts), Howard Johnson(tuba,bs), and Rufus Reid(b). It was recorded as a memorial to his mother, who passed away in the same year, and is distinguished from his other works by its contemporary sublimation of his roots in Dixieland jazz and other early jazz styles. Thelonious Monk's classic "Monk's Mood" also features an exquisite brass section and synthesizer ensemble. B1, dedicated to his father, has a colorful sound with a variety of drum machines and synthesizers.
