Thoughts (album)


Thoughts is an album by American jazz trumpeter Bill Dixon recorded in 1985 and released on the Italian Soul Note label.

Reception

In his review for AllMusic, Scott Yanow stated "The music is quite adventurous, yet thoughtful, disturbing without being forbidding."
The authors of The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings noted that "Dixon's playing is at a discount, though his silences are resonantly meaningful too." However, they cautioned that the album "drifts off into inconsequential and sometimes pretentious ramblings."
