Thoughtful Bride
CD (Item 587760) EMI/Rocket (Finland), 1980 — Condition: New Copy
A well-titled set, given that the music here is definitely constructed with a thoughtful approach – one that almost reminds us of the best ECM work of the 70s, but with some traces of the group's Finnish roots too! The lineup features piano and spinet from Arto Koskinen, tanpura from Raimo Lyly, soprano sax and flute from Pekka Poyry, guitar from Tommi Parko, bass from Make Lievonen, and drums and percussion from Jukka Wasama – and although the group is a sextet, they've got a sound that's nice and lean at most points – never the full-on fusion that other Finnish groups were hitting at the end of the 70s! Production is pretty laid back, too – which gives the record a really organic quality – instrumentation that slides forth very naturally – seeking its own level in a host of different shades and tones. The set features one cool psych/funk number – "Work While It Is Day" – plus the tracks "Akbar", "Cruisin", "Faithful", "Tears", "Childhood", and "Luthien". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
