rhapsody:  Rosanne Philippens (violin) | Yuri van Nieuwkerk (piano)

Ravel | Bartók

But by and large this is a rocking, extroverted performance, and that is where Clapton and band, providing a solid foundation, helped firm up Harrison's repertoire and resolve. From the sprung rhythms and tart slide licks of "Old Brown Shoe" to the crunching satire of "Devil's Radio," it is a pleasure to hear a pair of past masters bring out the best in each other.

The supergroup to end all supergroups had a serendipitous beginning, so it's fitting that they're named after Harrison's slang term for an accident. The word "Wilbury" was invented while he was working on 1987's Cloud Nine with Jeff Lynne as co-producer. When confronted with recording errors caused by faulty equipment, Harrison would assure Lynne, "We'll bury 'em in the mix." The line was eventually shortened to "Wilbury," a catch-all descriptor for minor performance mistakes and imperfections.

You're welcome. 

Don’t understand the critics so much, a lot of feedback/noise, but very enjoyable at least as far as I listened...

Now digesting this. Initial impresssion enjoyable...

Lee Konitz and Red Mitchell. A great alto/bass duet.
