Product-Information:
Grammy Award–winning guitarist Bill Frisell’s East / West—a live double-disc recorded during a pair of bi-coastal trio engagements—was released by Nonesuch in August 2005. Frisell is joined by Kenny Wolleson on drums and percussion and Tony Scherr on bass for East, which was recorded at New York’s Village Vanguard, and Viktor Krauss on bass for West, recorded at Yoshi’s in Oakland, California.
East and West both feature a mix of original Frisell compositions and popular, standard, and traditional tunes, written by a wide variety of songwriters, including George and Ira Gershwin, Henry Mancini and Johnny Mercer, Bob Dylan, Willie Nelson, and Johnny Cash. East / West is Frisell’s first full-length live recording on the Nonesuch label.
In a career that spans three decades, guitarist, composer, and bandleader Bill Frisell has been hailed by the Philadelphia Inquirer as “a revered figure among musicians.” The paper went on to say that “like Miles Davis and few others, his signature is built from pure sound and inflection; an anti-technique that is instantly identifiable.” Frisell’s recordings over the last decades span a wide range of musical influences. His catalog, including 20 recordings for Nonesuch, has been cited by DownBeat as “the best recorded output of the decade.” Some highlights of his Nonesuch output are Buster Keaton film scores (The High Sign / One Week, Go West); original compositions for extended ensemble with horns (This Land, Blues Dream); soundtracks to Gary Larson cartoons (Quartet); interpretations of work by other classic and contemporary American composers (Have a Little Faith); and collaborations with the acclaimed rhythm section of bassist Viktor Krauss and drummer Jim Keltner (Gone, Just Like a Train and, Good Dog, Happy Man). Other releases include an album with Nashville musicians (Nashville), the solo album Ghost Town, an album of his arrangements of songs by Elvis Costello and Burt Bacharach (The Sweetest Punch), a trio album with jazz legends Dave Holland and Elvin Jones, and a collection of American traditional songs and original compositions inspired by them entitled The Willies.
Rezensionen
T. Fuchs in Stereo 10/05: "Wie schon bei seinem umfassen- den Platten-Output aus den letzten Jahren gehen archaische Klänge und elektronische Sounds auch auf Frisells neuem (Doppel)-Album überraschende Synthesen ein. Süßliche Klänge prallen auf frei rotierende elektronische Klang- Splitter, destruktive Rockgitarrensalven messen sich mit dem Jazzkolorit der Begleitinstrumente. Ein spannender Exkurs in Sachen Americana anno 2005." W. Stiefele in Audio 10/05: "Purer als Studioaufnahmen zeigt dieses intime Live-Doppel mit zwei Trios, welch feine Verbindung aus Melodien und Harmonien der Saiten- zauberer eingeht. Klassiker wie "I Heard It Through The Grapevine", "Goodnight Irene" oder "Shenandoah" verwan- delt er in Country-Jazz-Kleinode."- Tracklisting
