Re: Bill Frisell a master at work.. some great use of looping



Yes, that was a bit uncalled for and I'm at work. My brain is off for the repurcussions of my unchecked responses. Perhaps its the fact that I'm working 16/7 and its sunday and I'm bitter. Sorry. Actually the "Poem For Eva" piece was very nice. I just grew up playing jazz only to upset metalhead musicians. Nothing like doing jazz versions of corporate hair metal songs to cheese off people.
That was our sole motivation in Earth, Worm and Fire.
Cheese off people. lol

Dont want to troll here, but comparing Frisell and muzak in the same
sentence is just... too much. :-D

This guy is just amazing, his playing moves me every time hear it.
There's this really soothing quality in the way in he plays. Thank you
for sharing this gig with the list.
Downloaded the audio immediately.

I liked the fact that he finally at the end did one of my fav beatles songs.
Up til that point I didn't care for the Muzak jazz voicings of Beatles
classics.
I really liked what he did with Strawberry Fields. The backwards looping was
awesome.

Heres a clip of my little brother utilizing my loop machine playing my
favorite Beatles song.

Weirdly, I liked the tone of the guitar but didn't like what he played.

I know nothing about him either, and cant say I am in the slightest bit
interested, but obviously a very talented musician. Whats wrong with the
guitar sound? I thought his insanely accurate fingering combined with that nice neck pickup sound was lovely, there was a flick to bridge pickup on the
last chard of Nowhere man that I thought was a mistake... Admittadly the
sound aint that "stratty", but in my book that was a good thing... could
have been worse tho, could have been a tele...

I'm not an expert regarding this musician's work. Do you guys think
Frisell himself likes that guitar sound he was playing on? Or maybe he
just cares more about the playing?

My guess had been some form of Line6 looper based on the clicks.

It sounded like the freeze pedal and a a looper that does revers and
double speed (he used no other intervals beside the octave). Maybe a
Rang or DL4? If he used an EDP he might one would have expected to
hear some wider "manglement".
