Customer Reviews
One of my all time favs
I bought this album because Ginger plays on it, and that alone guarantees a good album. What surprised me is how great Frisell and Haden are, and the combination of these three greats make for a killer album. I've always been a hard rock fan, but this record built a bridge for me to the world of jazz. Hard core fans of either genre may not like this album, because it has elements of both in nearly every track. 'East Timor' is easily my fav track.
This album is in my top 10 for sure, along with Zeppelin, Rush, Soundgarden, Cream, Alice in Chains, etc.
Listen and enjoy
This is one of those releases in which you have to apply your ears and spend some time with to really enjoy. Maybe its the Frisellesque winding pathways of musicality, twisting and turning through the composition. Or, Ginger Baker cascading down and around the tracks dancing on the batterie' (drum kit) with experienced abandon. Perhaps it could be Charlie Haden's bass - beautifully resounding. No, its the combined effort, the synergy and free-play among the trio which makes this puppy cook. Dig it!
Cool and challenging--like sushi
Ginger Baker knows his way around, through, above, and beyond rhythm. This CD is cool, crisp, concise. Ginger Baker, Bill Frisell, and Charlie Haden play so well together that it seems they have always been together playing and that we have just tapped into this ever playing stream of music. Frisell once more shows why he is one of the best guitarists on the planet, often by what he does not play. Haden bass playing blends perfectly with the flashy drumming of Baker. At time the mood gets mighty dark on this recording, but then you find yourself uplifted by the powerful interplay of three great musicians who have tapped into some mighty cool energy.
Note to Clapton's legions of current fans: You will not understand this music. This is not like Cream. Straight, No Chaser is an apt description.
