Sound Travels is an album by drummer and composer Jack DeJohnette recorded in 2011 and released on the eOne Music/Golden Beams label.[1] A re-recorded version of the song "Dirty Ground" would be included on the 2017 album Hudson.[2]
The AllMusic review by Thom Jurek states, "Sound Travels is a current, understated, well-disciplined glimpse into DeJohnette's current musical world view, which is worth celebrating for its own sake".[3]All About Jazz reviewer John Kelman said, "As he heads into his eighth decade on the planet and approaches his sixth in music, DeJohnette is clearly healthy, happy and on a creative roll. Sound Travels is a powerful celebration, culmination and affirmation of an artist who may be paying it forward to his younger players, but remains the humble and appreciative reciprocal recipient on a collaborative date where there's little to prove but plenty to say".[4]PopMatters' John Garratt said, "Sound Travels may not contribute new and radical ideas to Jack DeJohnette’s overall canon of works, but it is a fun, catchy by-product of his “me-time," relaxed and competing for nothing".[5]
