Customer Reviews

the lost abercrombie album
I'm a huge Abercrombie fan and this album is one of my favorites. Scofield and Abercrombie dig down deep into some jazzy blues lines that make these two guitar players undeniably some of the most creative to ever play the guitar. Abercrombie is magical as always and Scofield is young, bold, and worthy to share the light with this jazz god. I feel like Abercrombie is passing the torch on to another generation. The album [Timeless] materialized the jazz-rock-fusion era by crossing boundaries and steering music into new directions (an unbeatable accomplishment.) This has been handed off to Scofield who has ever since been attempting to move jazz onto a new canvas.

Tasteful, thoughtful, inspiring
This duo works as well together as Herb Ellis & Joe Pass, with the same amount of skill and taste. Definitely great listening at home, relaxing after a long day at work. The mood is subdued yet warm and enveloping. This makes me wish that they had worked together for more than just this one disc.

SOLAR-THE BEBOP ALBUM
There are many good mainstream-jazz guitar duo albums. This one is my most favorite. If you are preparing to spend a wonderful evening with a very special person, music from this CD would be perfect for the background (don't forget though to activate the REPEAT button on your CD-player as this CD is ahh...too short). You might feel that Track 3 (Four on Six) doesn't quite fit into the whole concept: it's too up-tempo and too saltatory, however, if you had consumed enough PINOT NOIR you wouldn't have found it terribly irritating... What am I talking about? Guys, this is a great CD! Mr Abercrombie apart from playing guitar uses electric mandoline and George Mraz (bass) and Peter Donald (drums) contributed to a couple of tracks. "Abercrombie & Scofield" go together as well as "Abercrombie & Fitch".
