This *is* Steve Coleman with Five Elements plus Steve Williamson, and the tune *is* 'Circle C' from the 'Sine Die' release of 1991. Like others on this page, I've got the album and I also happen to have met Steve, so it's a slam dunk. As for "whoever the hell that is," the guy happens to be internationally renowned among musicians, critics, and listeners, and has been for about two decades. FFS indeed.

@fxnmx he was trying to be funny, it's a line taken from The Fast Show.

Bunch of Star Trek looking M-fos.

FFS, this isn't 'Circle C' by Steve Coleman (whoever the hell that is). It's Desolate Shore by the James Dance Quartet. With Theydon Bois on guitar and Clam on bass. Check out the write-up in Wrong Note magazine.

what a pity the sound of the keyboards! Otherwise, Steve rules!

THANK YOU for posting this..!! "Sine Die" is my favorite Coleman album.. it's definitely the album that turned me on to his music.. I just graduated high schooll and was working at Tower Records & this Lp just came out and was being played in the store & I just freaked out when I heard it. I never heard anything like it. Bought the store copy that was playing that day. Have been a huge fan ever since. Brilliant album & artist.

this is great, but good lord, the keyboard player just freaks the crap out of me for some reason...

Steve is still around I think . . .

We had a true major figure in Jazz music here in the UK in the name of master Steve Williamson . . . but no - we couldn't honour that and had to rate up a bunch of stiff-neck flumps and 'royal-academy-of-ass' fakers who will in no way leave any kind of lasting mark.

SORRY STEVE.
