Breath Rhyme

Breath Rhyme is an album by American jazz saxophonist Rob Brown recorded in 1989 and released on the Swedish Silkheart label.

After his debut album co-led with pianist Matthew Shipp, Sonic Explorations, which was privately recorded and then sold, this was his first real studio date.

[1][2] In his review for AllMusic, Scott Yanow says about the trio that "is a throwback in ways to the intense projects recorded by the ESP label in the 1960s, but it is also more modern, looking toward Cecil Taylor.

"[3] The Penguin Guide to Jazz states "Brown first record looked back to the frantic avant-gardism of the '60s and forward to a new, third way approach which combine that freedom and radicalism of purpose with a more melodic and expressive idiom.

"[4] The Cadence Magazine review by Carl Baugher says about the album that "It makes a strong case for Brown's place amongst today's better alto improvisers and is another unqualified winner for Silkheart".
