A nice combination of melodic riffs and heavy death metal to ease my way gently into the Easter weekend Smile I am looking forward to a nice family musical weekend.

Stu,

Nearly there I'm very slow when it comes to things like this and I've been ill the last week. I had to revise it a little as you posted you were listening to one of my selections.

I grew up in a house with two brothers into this man and I cannot remember sod all about his music, did I block him out I just don't know, so I bought a couple of album's by the man to remind myself when my brothers were complete nutters.

Beautiful stuff. NOTES FROM BIG SUR contains a series of pieces that flow easily into one another, giving a through-composed feel to the album. There are plenty of peaks and valleys on this date, but for the most part, saxophonist Charles Lloyd and his ensemble maintain a subtle ballad sensibility throughout. Lloyd's own gossamer playing is very legato on much of this album, avoiding the harsher tone and avant-garde tendencies of some of his early recordings. Of course, ECM producer Manfred Eicher's strong use of reverb also gives this music a sleek veneer.

"Monk in Paris" is one of the most interesting tunes on NOTES FROM BIG SUR, as it features not only subtle section work, but also some exploratory improvisations from both Lloyd and pianist Bobo Stenson. On this piece, each soloist climaxes with a series of riffs that cascade downward like a waterfall. In contrast, "Pilgrimage to the Mountain - Part 1 Persevere" is more mellow and understated. Beginning with a faint arco bass melody, this song gradually develops into a wash of chordal clusters, towering long tones, and random percussive textures. In general, NOTES FROM BIG SUR is an introspective, poetic work that stands as one of Lloyd's finest albums.

Recorded at Rainbow Studio, Oslo, Norway in November 1991.

Personnel: Charles Lloyd (tenor saxophone); Bobo Stenson (piano); Anders Jormin (double bass); Ralph Peterson (drums).

Recording information: Rainbow Studio, Oslo, Norway (11/1991).

I have been hearing Oasis all night coming from my younger sons room. Last week, he was listening non stop to the Carpenters.
