Bill Frisell – Gitarre im Weltraumzeitalter – Musik auf Vinyl-LP

For this 2014 album, GUITAR IN THE SPACE AGE, guitarist and composer Bill Frisell mines the catalog of guitar based music from the '50s and '60s that first inspired him to pick up the instrument. Joining Frisell for this album of musical memoriesare the members of his working trio, bassist Tony Scherr and drummer Kenny Wollesen, along with frequent collaborator Greg Leisz, a master of the lap and pedal steel guitars. This superb quartet explores the music of Pete Seeger, the Byrds, Junior Wells, Dick Dale, the Ventures, the Astronauts, Chet Atkins, Merle Travis and others with Frisell's own compositions sprinkled in. The album offers a rare look into Frisell's formative influences, from a time when the electric guitar was in it's infancy and creating a startlingly new sound, pushing popular music into the future.
