Swedish–American Venture
CD (Item 375921) Dragon (Sweden), 1960s/1970s/1980s — Condition: New Copy
Two decades' worth of music from the mighty Bill Barron – all of it great, no matter what the vintage, and recorded by Swedish Radio in a variety of different formats! Some sides are straight, others are quite experimental – and Barron's given plenty of freedom to try out new ideas here, possibly even more than on some of his studio sets from the time. Settings include a large group from 1966, a 1966 quartet with Jan Wallgren on piano and Rupert Clemendore on drums, and quartets with Lars Sjosten on piano, from the years 1966, 1979, and 1984 – including one date that also features Barron on melodica! The recording quality is great throughout, and the 75 minute package is a real testament to Bill's continuously creative energy over the years – far past the initial moments of brilliance shown by some of his 60s contemporaries. Titles include "Variations In Blue", "In & Out", "Celestial Body", "A Swedish American Venture", "Through The Looking Glass", "Flip Flop", "Time Motion Space", and "Jazz Caper". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
