Pace Yourself


Pace Yourself is an album by saxophonist Tim Berne's Caos Totale which was recorded in 1990 and released on the JMT label.

Reception

The AllMusic review by Brian Olewnick states "Pace Yourself finds Berne's Caos Totale sextet exploring his rich, multi-layered compositions in depth and at length. Berne's pieces, especially his longer, episodic ones, tend to take unexpected twists and turns; you'll find very little of the traditional "head-solos-head" song structure here. Though most of his themes have a blues base, they emerge and disappear in conformity with their own logic, not a pre-existing formula".
