New Directions (Jack DeJohnette Album)
''New Directions'' is an album by Jack DeJohnette released on the German ECM label. It was recorded June 1978 at Talent Studio in Oslo and released in 1978. It features trumpeter Lester Bowie (Art Ensemble of Chicago), electric guitarist John Abercrombie and bassist Eddie Gomez. Reception The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 3½ stars, noting, "the music is a bit dull, making too much use of space and featuring less of Bowie's trumpet and wit than one would hope. There are some strong moments (particularly from Abercrombie and DeJohnette) but this band (to use a cliché) was less than the sum of its parts".Yanow, SAllmusic Reviewaccessed August 18, 2011 Track listing ''All compositions by Jack DeJohnette except as indicated.'' # "Bayou Fever" – 8:40 # "Where or Wayne" – 12:25 # "Dream Stalker" (Abercrombie, Bowie, DeJohnette, Gomez) – 5:55 # "One Handed Woman" (Abercrombie, Bowie, DeJohnette, Gomez) – 10:49 # "Silver Hollow" – 8:24 Personnel * J ...

New Directions (The Meters Album)
''New Directions'' is the eighth and final studio album by the funk band the Meters, released in 1977. Produced by David Rubinson in California, it is the band's only album recorded outside New Orleans. The album features the Oakland-based Tower of Power horn section. Reception John Swenson of ''Rolling Stone'' said the album "attempts to consolidate the group's style" and noted an overreliance on arrangement rather than the band's musical instinct. Stephen Erlewine of AllMusic called the music gritty and a move in the right direction as compared to the band's previous album ''Trick Bag''. Robert Christgau called the album "a very good commercial funk record."
