Live In Munich And Bonn

Otomo Yoshihide - electric guitar, Masahiko Satoh – piano, Roger Turner - drumset, percussion. These three men distil different generational and aesthetic information into set-long, completely free improvisation. Satoh’s playing is by turns lyrics and harmonically dense. Otomo’s slithering feedback and block-sized chunks of distortion dance on the edge of noise, even when volume is quite low. And the constant implications of motion in Turner’s drumming contain more rumble than pulse. And yet it coheres - the successful co- existence of these elements seems to be the point. (The Wire)
