Bill frisell this land megaupload

Frisell is a jazz slowhand, and his solo style places a premium on melody and the creative use of chord voicings and space to generate tension and converse with the rhythm section. Others may have more garish chops, but Frisell is the master storyteller. On his two part suite "Jimmy Carter" and on the title tune, Frisell creates a classical ambience through a multiplicity of parts which at times suggest Charles Ives and Aaron Copeland.

Frisell's singular feel for the blues surfaces on the southwestern flavored "Is It Sweet? Even more telling are his extended blues variations on the spectral "Julius Hemphill," where long chord tones by the horns provide an eerie, evolving backdrop for a series of epic variations by trombone, clarinet and electric guitar over an ominously slow tempo reminiscent of Miles Davis' "Yesternow" from JACK JOHNSON.

THIS LAND is also notable for the way Frisell comes out from behind his curtain of ambient effects to reveal a guitar timbre that is raw, singing and in your face. Bill Frisell. Genres: Jazz. Ornette Coleman. John Coltrane. Rahsaan Roland Kirk. The Heliocentrics. Sun Ra. Harris Simon Group.
