christosd Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 I was a 15 year old guitarist that used to try for the John Maclaughlin squinting solo smile during my crappy impro's.. No show for Adelaide... :-( 1
ABG Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 (edited) Currently spinning Eberhard Weber - Selected Recordings, Rarum Vol 18 (CD - 2004) Playing this for the first time and enjoying it immensely. For those of you, like me, who have never heard of Eberhard (prior to buying this), he's a German bassist. I've no idea how this compares to his other works, but I will definitely check out some of his other recordings based on this. Edited August 14, 2015 by ABG 3

Just checked out his " the following morning" on YouTube, very nice ambient type jazz music.Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk 2
Citroen Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 Eberhard Weber ‎– Yellow Fields, ECM 1066 ST, Vinyl, Germany, 1976The Penguin Guide to Jazz awarded it the maximum four stars and placed it in their Core Collection, writing "Weber's masterpiece is essentially a period piece which nevertheless still seems modern. The sound of it is almost absurdly opulent: bass passages and swimming keyboard textures that reverberate from the speakers, chords that seem to hum with huge overtones. The keyboard textures in particular are of a kind that will probably never be heard on record again." Ummm, its OK, in a lazy retro kind of way...; ) 3
Guest Misterioso Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 Apparently, Pat Metheny wrote a "multi-movement/multi-media tribute to Eberhard Weber" that will be performed during the 2015 Detroit Jazz Festival (North American premiere).

ZEN MISTER Posted September 5, 2015 Posted September 5, 2015 (edited) Second spin in two days. Acoustic and electric guitars, eastern percussion, sonics, and a dynamic range to scare a cat. ZM. P.S.- I played the opening track to some friends yesterday- I think it scared them. Edited September 5, 2015 by Zen Mister 5

dwbasement Posted September 7, 2015 Author Posted September 7, 2015 Bought this from Classic HiFi $10, the cheapest thing I can find in that shop... Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk 3
christosd Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 (edited) I got ripped off. This one cost me 15 dollars at Holy Vinyl! The Soprano Sax has the piercing clarity that you either love or hate. I love it and my wife hates it.Weber and Christensen... A great free flowing rhythm combo imho.

mrbuzzardstubble Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 (edited) New stuff.Sounds interesting. Pianist Tigran Hamasyan’s ECM debut is an extraordinary exploration of Armenian sacred music. Hamasyan has selected hymns and sharakans (Armenia’s liturgical songs) as well as chants by Grigor Narekatsi, Nerses Shnorhali, Mesrop Mashtots, Mkhitar Ayrivanetsi, Grigor Pahlavuni, Komitas, and Makar Yekmalyan and arranged this selection for voices and piano. This is music of the 5th to 20th centuries, finding new and dramatic expression through Hamasyan’s improvisational imagination and the committed performances of Armenia’s leading choir. Luys i Luso (Light from the Light) was recorded in Yerevan in October 2014, and produced by Manfred Eicher. In March 2015, Tigran Hamasyan and the Yerevan State Chamber Choir began an extensive tour of churches in Armenia, Georgia, Turkey, Lebanon, France, Belgium, Switzerland, Czech Republic, England, Germany, Luxembourg, Russia and USA, celebrating Armenia’s rich musical heritage around the world.

brumby Posted September 8, 2015 Posted September 8, 2015 (edited) Guitar and Trumpet. Nothing else. A reasonably unique combination. Released relatively recently - in 2009. Excellent music leaning towards late night listening. Ralph is now 75. I think I first saw him about 45 years ago when he was playing with Oregon. He's always been one of my favourite (you should pardon the expression in the context of what and how he plays) "axemen". Edited September 8, 2015 by brumby 7
