krispen-
my knowledge of jazz stuff is very limited. and
these aren't straight gtr, bass, drums....but what i know that's
close:
-there is the scofield loop album-that has a band w/ it, came
out a few yrs ago. it's decent, he uses an boss rc20 for looping in it
(uberjam)
-any of nels cline singers discs are good-i'm not sure how i'd
categorize them, honestly. but he uses gtr-drums-bass...
-one of my fave
discs of late is the david torn "prezens" disc-that's gtr, drums, horn,
keyboards (& electronics)-but i love that disc (there are youtube clips
too, dt usually says they're pretty limited in audio content, but i like them
for sound reference)
-there is also the polytown disc, dt w/ bozzio and
mick karn, trio improv from early 90s-also a great disc-
dt also played on
marty fogel's "many heads a bobbin" & lonely universe- are band projects
that he contributed guitar too. they are good i think. and there is also his
'cloud about mercury' dics w/ a band
oh, and the BLUE disc and the live
disc from that-are excellent -i love the live disc-it's bruford and levin, and
dt and crhis botti plays trumpet.
there is also:
the henry kaiser
"plane crash" power trio-it's not really jazz, more improv, experimental. but
it's good. HK probably has a few other band project discs, but i'm
drawing
a blank sitting here....
oh, michael "nemoguitar" klobuchar has an old
band called "Klutter" -it was a gtr bass drums improv group he did, i have 2
or 3 discs of it. of things recorded to 4-track. some interesting band
interaction on it, again-i'm not sure if it's "jazz" more outthere
improv/experimental. maybe he can comment on it.....
oh, the live
frisell east/west double disc it hink is straight guitar/bass/drums. it's
good. he does some loop things, oh and his other live disc from the 90s
("Live") is good.
i just realized i have a scary amt of bill frisell
discs...most are good (unspeakable, good dog happy man, intercontinentals,
frisell motian carter, bf w/ holland & jones)
do you have his "power
tools" disc-w/ ronald shannon jackson and melvin gibbs-from back in '87-i had
this on album, it was actually REVIEWED in rolling stone back in 80s -how i
heard about it. it's also good. and i know that there are some live discs from
this band, but the guitarist pete cosey fills in for frisell-i've always been
curious about it.
another disc i had back in the 90s. sonny sharrocks
"ask the ages", it was a trio w/ pharoah saunders on horn on a few cuts-i
think it's out there. i sadly got rid of this yrs ago, and wish i still had
it. copies of it now are kind of pricey, and i've not wanted to plunk down the
$$ for it....
these are the ones off the top of my head (& my very
limited knowledge....)
