UPC 731451400926
Exile's Gate is the seventh album by saxophonist Gary Thomas recorded in 1993 and released on the JMT label.
The AllMusic review by Thom Jurek states, "As a leader, saxophonist and composer Gary Thomas is wildly ambitious. Throughout the 1980s and into the '90s, Thomas experimented with everything from free jazz and funk to heavy metal and hip-hop. Exile's Gate is another such exercise... The first band plays Thomas' free-spirited and aggressive originals while the second plays standards for the most part. Only Thomas would think of putting the two approaches together on one record on alternate cuts."
