Up Popped the Two Lips is an album by Henry Threadgill featuring seven of Threadgill's compositions performed by Threadgill's Zooid. The album was the second album on the Pi Records label and was released simultaneously with Everybodys Mouth's a Book by Threadgill & Make a Move in 2001.
Both of Threadgill's initial Pi Recordings releases attracted critical approval. The Allmusic review by Thom Jurek awarded the album 4 stars stating "This is a fun, deft, and smart record. Threadgill is more on his game as a composer and as a bandleader than at any point in his career." The All About Jazz review by Glenn Astarita stated "it is a joy to delve into the band's multidirectional evolutionary processes."The Boston Phoenix's Ed Hazell stated "Threadgill has mixed these elements before, but not all in one working band, and he’s rarely given himself as much solo room in music so heavily composed."
All compositions by Henry Threadgill
