For as long as I have seen this album cover online, I thought it was a blury picture of a large shark or small whale, something like an Orca. I always wondered what a sea animal had to do with the title Sky Dive. With the CD in my hands for the first time, I can't believe I am just now realizing the picture is of a bomb being dropped from a planes drop doors. :headrubbingguy:
In my defense, I think all the blue in the picture threw me off.

David Binney - Welcome To Life _2004_
It may not look like it from the cover, but this is a modern Jazz album.
4.5 stars at AllAboutJazz's review

"...the elite of the current vanguard, especially Binney, who released his first recording as a leader some fifteen years ago.
Appearing on more than fifty recordings and gigging with everyone from Aretha to Zorn implies the wide-ranging skill set that Binney has perfected to deal with his modern jazz muse. "Welcome to Life" propels us into the moment with unison piano and bass, conveying the tenor and alto horn section forward. Stating strongly together initially, the horns then alternate leading and following, leaning out over a sparser rhythm section breakdown, adding tension before releasing back to the gallop. This technique also introduces Adam Rogers' angular electric guitar solo, brimming with his almost-futuristic phraseology, amalgamating without appropriating the electric guitar's history of influence. Craig Taborn's done much the same on piano, drawing freely on his choruses here from Powell, Monk, Hancock, Tyner, Corea, and Jarrett, while settling in on none."
