Thunder

S.M.V.—the power trio of Selwyn Birchwood, Marcus Miller, and Victor Wooten—channels raw fusion energy on Thunder, a Dreyfus Jazz release that crackles with jazz-funk immediacy and jazz-rock precision. Miller’s bass work anchors explosive grooves while Wooten’s virtuosity and Birchwood’s drumming ignite conversations between three masters operating at peak intensity. This is working-band chemistry distilled into pure kinetic force.
