It makes sense that the opening melody on that tune would affect the sequencing, because it is so strong. Everytime I listen to that CD, that groove from the end of The Field is what sticks in my head for a day or two.

Thanks very much for reviewing the record and playing a couple tracks on your podcast. A little behind the scenes info on the recording; “The Field” was recorded in the traditional manner of melody-improvisation-melody, but when it came time to figure out the track sequence we couldn’t quite figure out a musical flow we were happy with, until we cut the initial melody statement on “The Field” and had it come directly out of the preceding tune “Tripoli” into the trombone/bass inprovisation. A simple but effective arranging technique – just hack off the first half of the song!
