Sometimes, a good thing is worth repeating.
Venture Inward, Weiss’ debut for Posi-Tone Records due out next week, is a studio song-by-song replication ofSnuck In, save for Andrew Hill’s “Erato” (the only studio cut from the earlier album) being replaced by two other Hill compositions of the late 60s, “Venture Inward” and “Pax.” Also as before, Weiss on trumpet is backed by J.D. Allen (tenor sax), Nir Felder (guitar) and Jamire Williams (drums). Luques Curtis (bass) replaced Matt Clohesy. The repeated songs presented on the new album were actually recorded in the studio on the day before the live performances, and the two Hill tracks were taped on the same day a few months later as the replaced Hill track.
