 Dave Holland at Chicago Symphony Center
Holland’s “The Secret Garden” was the best of all; its double-stopped descending bass theme, and Holland’s intricate, weaving melodic developments of that theme against Gurtu’s sparse tabla accompaniment, created a sense of great distance and benevolent fate.
Holland himself was doing a little more reading than usual (you can tell because he wears his glasses) for Potter’s lovely “Sea of Amara,” which featured the composer on soprano over effluorescing lines from the horns that followed the soprano melody in trailing, fanning notes.
Potter’s solo over Holland’s darting bass and Smith’s cymbals and ride-cymbal pulse (fresh off a Potter tour together, the tenorman and drummer have a telepathic connection at present that’s electric) was as good as the composition itself, and the group gelled convincingly.

 Holland K. Smith CD Review
The first album from Holland K.Smith is a rich mixture of Texas Swing, Boogie and downright good playing.
Jungle Jane produced by Anson Funderburgh has been available since 1997 but is still doing the business due to the quality of the material, mostly self written, and the quality playing of the musicians on this album.
Although allot of the album is fast and dynamic Holland doesn't neglect playing the slow blues, which he does well on "Blood on my Hands," which has almost an hypnotic feel to it.
