Conventional jazz guitar, backed by two stalwarts of the ECM label: Gary Peacock (bass) and Paul Motian (drums). Like an ECM record, lots of cool-handed intensity, w/drums and cymbals slapping, but a somehow delicate air. Improvisations get "out there" in a soft, non-skronky way.
1- Mid/fast; aggressive w/soft touch
2- Floaty, slowish
3- Mid/fast. Tumbling but reasonably catchy theme.
4- Oud. Lightly scrambly, fairly fast.
5- Oud. "World" feel, a midtempo pulse w/ fast solo intro.
6- Dark, almost Spanish guitar feel
7- Almost country intro in the bass. High, sparkly guitar solo
8- Slow shuffle, ballad feel.
9- Fairly fast-paced, cool hipness
10- Oud, w/slow intro into a nice marching beat
11- Midtempo, ECM wandering; builds a cool intensity
12- Calmly mid/fast, active. w/bass solo.
13- Scattery, fairly fast
14- Quiet, spare
