Chillin' is an album by American saxophonist David "Fathead" Newman which was recorded in 1998 and released on the HighNote label the following year.
[1][2][3][4] In his review on Allmusic, Scott Yanow states "This straight-ahead effort is pretty definitive of his jazz abilities, for it has Newman making four appearances on tenor, two on soprano, and one apiece on flute and alto.
[5] In JazzTimes, Willard Jenkins noted "Standing in the middle of a mountain stream, barefoot and coverall-ed on the CD cover, all’s seemingly right in Fathead’s world.
Newman embraces this music with the seasoned improviser’s special coupling of swing and relaxation.
[7] On All About Jazz Douglas Payne said "This compelling, easily enjoyable set shows the many sides of David Newman's personality – and his distinctive and vital talents on a variety of reed instruments too".
