Even though he took thirty years off between his 5th and 6th albums, Jake never lost the touch. When you listen to "One Small Hand" (from this album) you can see that his "Signs of Age" have changed for the better. And when did you ever hear Jake scat slam poetry about Miles Davis? - Not until now with the tune "Miles." And "Dust" could have come straight from "Katherine December." So even after all these years his focus hasn't changed one bit except that the new album helps us get a clearer perspective of the man, especially on "Dangerous Time" and the magnificent "Orphan." Same Intellect - different decade.
