BILL FRISELL: All We Are Saying…
Savoy Jazz, 2011
COUNTRY/JAZZ/ROCK – Guitar master Frisell brings his jazz-Americana sound to the music of John Lennon, leading a fine quintet. This project started as a random one-off concert in 2005 and grew into a labor of love… definitely more than just another Beatles cover album, the tunes are played with great affection and have an underlying serenity even when the band is rocking out. Really, really nice work.
Bill Frisell, Greg Leisz : guitars
Jenny Scheinman : violin
Tony Scherr : bass
Kenny Wollesen : drums
Fo’s Picks: 1, 3, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 12, 14
1. 5:53 – calm, warm, atmospheric
2. 3:50 – rocking honky-tonk swirl
3. 5:14 – swirling start, folksy stomp
4. 4:52 – relaxed, optimistic sway
5. 2:06 – rockin’ hoedown
6. 5:08 – laid-back and really sweet
7. 3:56 – twangy road-song feel
8. 4:05 – slow, heartfelt, just lovely
9. 5:08 – ominous thump ‘n’ swirl
10. 3:31 – sweet folksy balladry
11. 4:21 – relaxed, upbeat twang
12. 3:42 – lazy drifting, perks up
13. 2:18 – slow violin/guitar duet
14. 3:27 – on the long, long road
15. 6:53 – slow drag for trio
16. 3:37 – swirls up and around
