| “ | With 80/81, Pat Metheny took one step closer to his dream of working with The Prophet of Freedom (a dream he finally achieved with 1985’s Song X), and what better company than Coleman alumni Charlie Haden and Dewey Redman, both fresh off the boat of Keith Jarrett’s newly defunct American Quartet and both welcome additions to the extended Metheny family. Along with the technical mastery of reedman Mike Brecker and drummer Jack DeJohnette, plus a dash of post-bop spice, the result was this still-fresh sonic concoction. The atmospheres of the opening “Two Folk Songs” invite us with that expansive pastoralism so characteristic of Metheny. This makes Brecker’s highly trained yet raw stylings all the more marked, bringing as they do a sense of presence that explodes into a million pieces. | ” |
| “ | This album, "Strange Day in Berlin" is a a transitional album that still shows some of the creative spirit of the early albums, while starting to move towards the less remarkable pop of the later albums. The best tunes on this are the title track, and the rather spacey-sounding anthem of romantic despair, "10 Million Light Years from Home", but there's nothing that can really compare to any of her earlier stuff... | ” |
| “ | Originally intended as a filler collection while we waited for a new George Harrison album to arrive, this turns out to be a massively great collection of rare Harrison tracks. It's the most listenable non-official CD of his solo material that I've ever had. A really nice compilation... | ” |
| “ | Acclaimed Norwegian Progsters LEPROUS are getting ready to release their new album "Coal" on May 20th, 2013 in Europe and May 28th, 2013 in North America via InsideOutMusic.LEPROUS singer / synth-player Einar Solberg comments about the song as follows: "We're delighted to finally be able to give you the first taste of our upcoming album "Coal"! "Coal" is a melancholic, soulful and very dynamic album. Where "Bilateral" was playful and "in-your face", "Coal" is subtle and floating. "Chronic" however, is of the more dynamic songs of the album. With a heavy basis, the song pinches a nerve Leprous has never before explored." | ” |
