“God save the Queen/ she ain’t no human being!” Johnny Rotten once sneered, but for British-Barbadian reedsman Shabaka Hutchings, he has the guile to go with the poesy in echoing the sentiment 40 years later.
In Hutchings, the emergent British jazz scene has its firebrand and potential superstar and naming his breakout album Your Queen is a Reptile is as intrepid (and yes, punk as fuck) a title to give a jazz album in 2018, especially one that announces the reboot of the legendary Impulse! Records brand and will no doubt introduce Hutchings to mainstream jazz audiences stateside.
Already, Hutchings nailed that rare hat trick in modern jazz, having three of his adventurous bands all brought into the House that Trane Built: the label signed his spiritually-minded octet Shabaka and the Ancestors, the jazz-acid of his electronic trio The Comet is Coming and the boombastic bop of quartet Sons of Kemet.
