Don Pullen's long, impressive career was marked by experimentation, and a willingness to play with what often seemed to be contradictory styles and approaches. On 1994's SACRED COMMON GROUND, Pullen's final recording (he died in '95), he continues this impulse by bringing together the African Brazilian Connection (his six-piece ensemble) with the Native American Chief Cliff Singers. Though the traditional singing of the Cliff Singers dominates the album, these passages are off-set by Pullen and his group exploring African and Latin rhythms and improvising in a more jazz-oriented manner (with some excellent piano work from Pullen). Tthe entire project is a testament to Pullen's lifelong pursuit of the freewheeling expression that dissolves boundaries.

Entertainment Weekly (1/26/96, p.59) - "...he makes music that can dance with life or invite spiritual awareness." - Rating: A-
JazzTimes (3/96, p.88) - "...Throughout this arresting, haunting work one is struck by the unusual timbers of the Native singers; their blending of tones and the sheer majesty of their expression invoking deep contemplation in the listner....Pullen succeeds...in forging a historical musical relationship between his music and the tribal music..."
Musician (4/96, p.91) - "...it's Pullen's power of invention that drives this date...its rousing realization creates an exotica void of oddity..."
New York Times (Publisher) (2/11/96, Sec.2, p.30) - "...Pullen more than almost any other musician understood both jazz mainstream and the avant-garde, and his composing also combined gospel and pop influences..."
