Review title: You Don't Know What a Trio Can Do....
Product review: ...until you've heard this. You may know what Clapton did with Jack and Ginger (and it was brilliant) or what Hendrix did with Noel and Mitch (ditto), but this is something else again. This is a trio with a jazz flavor (Jim Keltner showing that a great drummer is a great drummer anywhere, as Ginger has in his later work) but plugged in and occasionally as intense and edgy as any rock work. If you don't know Frisell you're in for a treat.But be sure to listen to how the pieces are composed if you're at all interested in musical structure. There is a lot of fascinating harmonic and rhythmic experimentation going on here. But even as he pushes the envelope, Frisell stays grounded in song forms that are not too hard for the less adventurous listener. If you find avant-garde jazz too "out there" and you've heard Bill is "one of those", don't let it stop you. You will be pleasantly surprised. (Oh, and check out John Mclaughlin too, but more of that elsewhere.)
