Rhythm in Mind is an album by saxophonist Steve Coleman, recorded in 1991 and released by Novus Records.[2][3]

Reception[edit]

The Toronto Star wrote that "the fluid emotional work of altoist Coleman headlines an octet gathering of post-bop conservatism, spacey odysseys and booting contributions from veterans Von Freeman on tenor and Tommy Flanagan on piano."[4]

Scott Yanow of AllMusic stated: "The music is essentially a quirky version of straight-ahead jazz with generally strong solos from the diverse players, hints of Coleman's M-Base music, and some blues. Intriguing but not essential."[5]
