| | Robert Creeley Have We Told You All You'D Thought To Know? CD Robert Creeley Discography of CDs
Recorded live at The Hallwalls Contemporary Arts Center, Buffalo, New York in September 1998. Includes liner notes by Dan Bailey.
Have We Told You All You'd Thought to Know? is Cuneiform's second foray into spoken word. But while Richard Pinhas and Maurice Dantec's settings of Gilles Deleuze's philosophical writings (The Life and Death of Marie Zorn) resulted in claustrophobic shrouds of electric guitars and treated, almost inaudible vocals in French, this project around the poetry of Robert Creeley puts the words centerstage and accompanies them with soft free improvisations with a jazz inflection. Creeley needs no introduction; he has a strong reputation and his relation to jazz has always been a source of inspiration. Here, four high-end jazz musicians are inspired by his words -- drummer Chris Massey, bassist Steve Swallow, saxophonist David CasT, and atmospheric guitarist David Torn develop improvisations that are "triggered," so to speak, by Creeley's readings. The poet has often read in public, and his phrasing and sense of drama captivate as much as the music unfolding around him. Taken from a show in September 1998, this CD should be experienced from start to finish so that the listener can be completely immersed in its artistic universe (all tracks segue). The proceedings remain rather accessible throughout, and poetry fans will have no difficulty staying on board. David Torn's sometimes tortured guitar loops bring a contrasting note to the otherwise jazzy approach of CasT, Massey, and Swallow, so there is something for everybody here -- that is, everybody able (or willing) to appreciate true artistic expression. Recommended. ~ François Couture

The third full-length release from Univers Zero (disregarding the limited-release Crawling Wind EP, which Cuneiform re-released with bonus tracks in 2001), finds the group continuing to evolve. Group members may have realized that their previous release, the perversely brilliant Heresie, was a dead end of sorts, because ...

Have We Told You All You'D Thought To Know? music CDs
$15.15 
Reissue of the acclaimed drummer's 1970 post Cream project, recorded live at the Royal Albert Hall. He is joined by many special guests here including, Steve Winwood, Rick Grech, Chris Wood, Denny Laine, Graham Bond & more.
For a change, the late 1960s yielded up a supergroup that lived up to its hype and then some. Ginger Baker's Air Force was recorded live at Royal Albert Hall in January of 1970 -- in fact, this may be the best-sounding live album ever to come out of that notoriously difficult venue -- at a show that must have been a wonder to watch, as ...

Have We Told You All You'D Thought To Know? songs
$13.69 
After marking time with a live release, Terry Evans returns after four years with a studio collection that, while it doesn't explore new territory, revels in the gospel-laced rocking R&B that has always been his forte. Old friend Ry Cooder sits this one out again (he does contribute a terrific if slightly off-kilter love song in "My Baby Joined the Army"), but his influence is never far from the proceedings when Mark Shark, Joe Colombo, or especially ex-Cooder cohort David Lindley picks up a slide ...
