Eleventh House: Larry Coryell (guitar); Randy Brecker (trumpet); Mike Mandell (piano, synthesizer); Danny Trifan (bass); Alphonse Mouzon (percussion). Personnel: Larry Coryell (guitar); Mike Lawrence , Randy Brecker (trumpet); Mike Mandel (piano, synthesizer); Alphonse Mouzon (percussion). Audio Mixer: Dave Baker . Recording information: Vanguard's 23rd Street Studio, New York, NY (1972). The Eleventh House during 1972-1975 was one of the stronger working groups in fusion, led by one of the unsung heroes of the idiom, guitarist Larry Coryell. This CD reissue brings back the Eleventh House's first recording and, in addition to Coryell's guitar, most heavily featured are trumpeter Randy Brecker (who would later be replaced by Mike Lawrence) and keyboardist Mike Mandel; bassist Danny Trifan and drummer Alphonse Mouzon are strong in backup roles. The influence of Miles Davis, Weather Report, and Herbie Hancock is apparent, but the Eleventh House also offered a sound of their own. Brecker's solos are often both fiery and lyrical (although his use of an occasional electric wah-wah device is less interesting). Coryell and Mandel blend together quite well, and the original grooves on this set often have distinctive personalities. Pity that the reissue does not have any liner notes, otherwise it is easily recommended to fans of early fusion. ~ Scott Yanow
