East/West

Description: East/West (2CD) [Audio CD] Bill Frisell Product Overview Format: East/West Guitarist and 2005 Grammy Award winner Bill Frisell's East/West is a double-disc set featuring two trio performances: Frisell on guitar and Kenny Wolleson on drums and percussion, with Tony Scherr on bass for the East disc, which was recorded at New York's Village Vanguard, and Viktor Krauss on bass for West, recorded at Yoshi's in Oakland, CA. On East/West Bill Frisell proves once again he is one of the most prolific players of his generation. While it's a measure of his success that he's able to pursue a wide variety of projects, the bottom line is his insatiable musical curiosity warrants all the attention he receives. East/West is a two- disc live set, one recorded on each coast. All are trio performances, with drummer Kenny Wollesen playing throughout, Viktor Krauss on bass in California, Tony Scherr in New York. So supple is the interplay that the stylistic change in the two bassists makes for a subtly different character to each of the nights. Frisell focuses on a mix traditional, folk, and even soul in the west; in the east there's a bit more drawn from the jazz canon (though not entirely, as the version of "Crazy" is a marvel as Scherr sets down his bass and picks up an acoustic guitar). --David Greenberger Details Is Discontinued By Manufacturer ‏ : ‎ No Language ‏ : ‎ English Product Dimensions ‏ : ‎ 5.04 x 5.59 x 0.51 inches; 4.16 ounces Manufacturer ‏ : ‎ Nonesuch Original Release Date ‏ : ‎ 2005 Date First Available ‏ : ‎ January 29, 2007 Label ‏ : ‎ Nonesuch Number of discs ‏ : ‎ 2 Best Sellers Rank: #149,574 in CDs & Vinyl (See Top 100 in CDs & Vinyl) #588 in Avant Garde & Free Jazz (CDs & Vinyl) #1,335 in Jazz Fusion (CDs & Vinyl) #1,677 in Modern Postbebop (CDs & Vinyl) Quality Products This will be shipped securely Returns must be within 30 days - item EXACTLY as it was sent.
