"<BR/><BR/>You already know this Brian, as you reviewed it, but add Martin Tetreault's turntables and Tommy Klufton's bass to that quartet and you get the No Spaghetti line up on the Sofa release <I>Sketches of a Fusion</I> from last year.<BR/><BR/>That disc was really rather good, but I think Tetreault really made it. Will be interesting to hear how this sounds without him.Richard Pinnellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00168522717135806763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28154988.post-12115801830166855382008-04-20T16:59:00.000-04:002008-04-20T16:59:00.000-04:00I, too, vastly prefer the 'american' quartet.

I still dig the 70's solo stuff, though maybe excepting Koln - haven't heard that in years, despite having it. <BR/><BR/>Any of that american quartet stuff is gold, though.

I think it's pretty cute, it is pretty much a literally take on 0'00" (play any sound at maximum amplification) and using the 4'33" album is, as I said, cute.<BR/><BR/>I really like that Allport/Akiyama album one of only a couple of LPs I bought last year. I've played it a lot but not as much as I would if I had a digital copy. It probably would have made my "best of" list had that been the case. It does as you say slip into the background decently but there is a lot there to reward close listens.Robert K__https://www.blogger.com/profile/15732156105233918236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28154988.post-56484208763678990392008-04-20T13:56:00.000-04:002008-04-20T13:56:00.000-04:00Yeah, I remain a fan of the mid 70s Redman/Haden g...Yeah, I remain a fan of the mid 70s Redman/Haden group, less so of the Garbarek collaborations. A couple years back, I repurchased "Expectations" so I could play "Common Mama" at Record club and it still sounded pretty great.<BR/><BR/>As much as I loved them at the time, not sure I could sit through Bremen/Lausanne or the Koln Concert today.Brian Olewnickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08567239067604835372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28154988.post-87818831812614443192008-04-20T13:49:00.000-04:002008-04-20T13:49:00.000-04:00hey, no gulp necessary w/ Jarrett.

I don't love everything, but I don't really know anyone who does, and I for sure think that he's made more good-to-great music than not.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08911118844214043038noreply@blogger.com
