Album Notes & Community Reviews
Featuring two distinct trio line-ups recorded on opposite coasts, the acclaimed jazz guitarist effortlessly weaves traditional Americana and blues structures into delicate post-bop improvisation. Frisell's incredibly pristine, delay-tinged tone establishes a deeply meditative, open-spaced instrumental atmosphere across the double album.
