Reception
Allmusic awarded the album 4 stars stating "Altoist Sonny Stitt and trombonist Benny Green make for a potent team on this spirited quintet set... the two distinctive horns (along with pianist Kirk Lightsey, bassist Herman Wright and drummer Roy Brooks) have little difficulty essaying these bop pieces, blues and ballads, and their personable styles match well together".

Pow! (novel)
Pow! (Chinese: 四十一炮; pinyin: sìshíyī pào) is a 2003 novel by the Chinese author and Nobel laureate Mo Yan. The novel's protagonist is Luo Xiaotong, a village boy with a passion for story-telling. It is set in a temple, where Luo recounts the story of his life to an old monk. He describes the difficult circumstances of his childhood in the "Slaughterhouse Village," a fictional town in which the population is obsessed with the consumption of meat and where corruption is rife.
The novel has been interpreted as an allegorical commentary on the state of contemporary Chinese society, though Mo himself maintains that he is merely a storyteller, uninterested in ideology.

Baraka (album)
Baraka is an album by the DKV Trio, composed of drummer Hamid Drake, bassist Kent Kessler and reedist Ken Vandermark. It was recorded in 1997 and released on Okka Disk.
The DKV Trio was assembled by Vandermak in the summer of 1994 for the recording project Standards. The band's first album was the limited edition CD DKV Live, recorded in December 26, 1996 at the Chicago Lunar Cabaret and also released on Okka Disk.
Reception
In her review for AllMusic, Joslyn Layne states "Baraka may suffer a bit in comparison to the later, extraordinary Live in Wels & Chicago, but it's still a terrific showcase of the trio and, overall, a great adventurous jazz album."
The Penguin Guide to Jazz notes that "Baraka has its moments of stasis -the title track runs for more than 35 minutes, and it needs plenty of resources to sustain that- but there is still an awful lot to listen to."
