Prospectus (album)
Prospectus is a live album by soprano saxophonist Steve Lacy, which was recorded in France in 1982 and first released on the hat ART label in 1983 as a double LP. The album was rereleased as a single CD with only five tracks in 1999 as "Clichés". Reception. The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow stated "Lacy offered an alternative way to play free jazz, contrasting sound and silence and taking thoughtful and often-scalar improvisations not absent of melody and lyricism, but still quite adventurous and unpredictable. This is one of many excellent recordings of Lacy's music . Reviewing the CD reissue for All About Jazz Glenn Astarita said "Cliches is absolutely essential listening for fans of this brilliant soprano saxophonist-composer! ... the indications are that of a world class musician who along with his estimable bandmates present the jazz world with 63-minutes of music magic as "Cliches" is yet another noteworthy addition to Steve Lacy’s distinguished recorded legacy!".
