Solo acoustic-guitar improv. Abstract but with a focus on melodies and harmonies (actual *notes*!); Smith ventures into Derek Bailey territory only rarely. It's more relaxing that Joe Morris' "Singularity" CD but obviously not easy listening. Of the three long tracks, #4 is the most pleasant and consistant, although it gets into a bit of a rut. #8 is good for the first and last three minutes, but the middle has long quiet patches that get tiresome. #11 seems the best of the three, carrying darker qualities than #4. Other tracks: 6 - Peacefull, lots of harmonics 12 - Lots of clacky percolating. | ||
