Frank Catalano, Jimmy Chamberlin, Percy Jones, Chris Poland, Adam Benjamin - Love Supreme Collective
Review by Adam Randall
Love Supreme Collective is a jazz album that features an impressive lineup of musicians, including Frank Catalano, Jimmy Chamberlin, Percy Jones, Chris Poland, and Adam Benjamin. The album is a fusion of different jazz styles, ranging from smooth and mellow to upbeat and energetic.
The album begins with "Resolution," a track that sets the tone for the rest of the album with its intricate saxophone solos and driving drum beats. Other standout tracks include "Pursuance," which features a memorable bassline from Percy Jones, and "Acknowledgement," which showcases the group's ability to seamlessly blend different jazz styles into one cohesive sound.
Throughout the album, each musician gets a chance to shine, with Frank Catalano's saxophone playing being a particular highlight. The album is also notable for its use of electronic elements, such as synthesizers and electronic drums, which add a modern twist to the classic jazz sound.

Notes
- Love Supreme Collective is the Ropeadope debut by Billboard Chart-topping saxophonist Frank Catalano and Smashing Pumpkins drummer Jimmy Chamberlin. This inspired album has its genesis in difficult circumstances. In 2011, Catalano sustained serious injuries after his car was hit by a drunk driver. He cites John Coltrane's A Love Supreme as the spiritual anchor during his difficult recovery. Catalano wanted to make a recording that embodied the love, thanks, and praise of A Love Supreme without copying it.
- In a recent interview, Chamberlin said, 'I have been a friend and fan of Catalano's for years and I am very excited about this recording.' The Catalano/Chamberlin collaboration has enabled Chamberlin to reconnect with his jazz roots. Fans of Chamberlin's drumming will be delighted to hear him in this new context, as he demonstrates a new range of depth in his playing.
- For this project, Chamberlin enlisted his keyboardist from the Jimmy Chamberlin Complex, Adam Benjamin (Kneebody), and Catalano rounded up PolCat members Percy Jones (Brand X, Soft Machine) and Chris Poland (Megadeth) for the bass and guitar work, respectively.
- Catalano was fortunate to have worked with A Love Supreme's legendary drummer, Elvin Jones, who Chamberlin cites as one of his biggest influences. As such, the passion felt for the material on this recording is easily apparent. 'I had the opportunity to experiment with semi-tones and tetrachords often found in Armenian folk songs.' Catalano said about this album 'I was able to let loose thanks to Jimmy and Percy's amazing foundation and groove. I feel sooooooooooo blessed and fortunate and I want to thank everyone who is reading these words and checking out the music!'
