Like time itself, each song is open to individual interpretation - something Nozero himself confessed to on the album's original liner notes, saying 'It got so deep that we decided to call the group and our album after that concept of TIME, because it seemed to mean something to just about everyone.'\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA native of Detroit, Nozero spent time in Charles Moore's Detroit Contemporary 5 (part of Strata Inc.) before being drafted into the military. While enlisted, Nozero capitalised on his time by honing his craft in the Army Band. By the time he returned to Detroit, Nozero had little trouble landing high-profile gigs. No stranger to success, Nozero's previous credits and collaborators include Henry Mancini, Sergio Mendes, and playing Soprano sax on Marvin Gaye's iconic 1971 album, What's Going On.\u003cbr\u003eWorking with his cousin and collaborator Dennis Tini, Time is unlike many albums of the era in that it truly feels like a work fuelled by freewheeling expressionism. The pieces are funky, soulful, strange and soothing all at once. Tini's stand-out contribution to the album is 'Tune for L.N.', a funk-fuelled piece of rhythm-centric jazz. A distinguishing feature of the album is the use of wordless vocals. The scat work on part two of 'Chronicle Of The Murdered House' adds a distinct counterpoint to Nozero's reed work, while the high pitch bebop of 'Baubles, Bangles and Beads' closes out the album with a carefree and buoyant groove.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTime has been remastered by the Grammy nominated studio The Carvery, along with the artwork, which has been restored and includes never seen before photos.","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54491353153921,"sku":"2334821","price":30.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/419LQc7DXML.jpg?v=1752983484","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/2334821","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
