Since we're on Nels. He has a new album called "Sad" (I also recommend "Chest"). Content Ad: And guess what kids! He loops. I tried to mention this about a month or so ago . . . he uses an EH 16-second delay. Highly recommended. Uses lots of p*****s, as well as space guns and egg whisks. Gig Ad: For you LA folk he will be playing at Luna Park on May 3rd with GE Stinson (who also loops) on Guitars, Jeff Gathier (who sometimes does) on violins, and yours truly on 6-string basses (looping as well). The band is the GE Stinson String Group. Lots of noise damage, bucolic bliss, classical stylism, big riffs, twisted blues imagery . . . basically whatever happens-total improv. Chris Speed from NY will be here with his band. > I also have been listening to the Nels Cline Trio, "Ground" and that's > a nice > blend of straight ahead free jazz, with a heavy dose of Sonic Youth > style noise > injection.
