Personnel: Kevin Burke (fiddle); Aidan Brennan (guitar); Martin Hayes (fiddle).
Recorded live at Artichoke Music, Portland, Oregon in 1998. Includes liner notes by Kevin Burke.
Maybe the prospect of listening to almost an hour's worth of solo Irish fiddle doesn't sound that exciting to you. That's understandable. Most non-fiddlers would probably feel the same way. Let's give Kevin Burke's live solo album a try, though: listen to the opening number, a modal slip jig called "The Butterfly" (which I believe is also known by the less diplomatic name "Skin the Peelers"); notice how he plays with the rhythm, hesitating in unexpected places while never losing the thread of the tune, spinning the whole thing out like some kind of mournful dance. Then hang on while the applause dies down, and listen to him swing into "Bonnie Kate," an utterly joyful and footloose reel. Hear him pounding out those backbeats? Don't you feel like you've just been forgiven of all your sins? Elsewhere he welcomes fellow fiddler Martin Hayes on stage for several duets and on a couple of tunes he's accompanied by guitarist Aidan Brennan. All of it is marvelous. ~ Rick AndersonDirty Linen (10-11/99, p.82) - "...his playing here is far more radical than anything previously heard in terms of liberties taken with time....his great dynamic range, is of course more apparent when he plays solo..."

Where did this come from? 1993's electrocharged American Caesar proved the Ig was no spent force. But 1996's Naughty Little Doggie and other post-Soldier LPs the last 19 years yielded merely OK rock 'n' roll, short of his original outrageous inspiration. Time for a radical departure? Apparently so. Three decades into such an illustrious, infamous, distinguished career, Mr. Ostenberg takes his biggest leave from the Iggy Stooge outrageous rocker persona, even bigger than his Berlin Bowie days. At 52, the ex-STOOGES singer wants to play battlescarred sage, with an unexpected, ...

| | Pele Elephant CD (1999) Bonus Tracks
In Concert
$10.15
Pele: Chris Rosenau, Matt Tennessen, Jon Mueller, Jon Minor.
Audio Mixer: Chris Rosenau.
Recording information: On Air West, Tokyo, Japan (10/21/2002).
Photographer: Chris Rosenau.
While Pele has been dubbed post-rock by some circles of critics, Elephant (the band's third release) usurps no traditional rock song formats and doesn't embrace much more than only slight hints of modern ambient or experimental music, and frankly it would find a comfortable home in the jazz section of your local music retailer. Guitarist Chris Rosenau picks nimble, rolling riffs around which bassist Matt Tennessen and drummer Jon Mueller form a driving unit that ebbs and jumps with ease. In fact, it is Mueller's propulsive playing that makes Elephant more than just an ordinary noodle fest, providing kinetic energy and strident pacing with skittering, angular fills and layered beats. He has definitely studied his instrument, and it helps Pele's music make the leap from interesting to exceptional. Elephant offers just enough lo-fi sonic dust to seem punkish, but make no mistake, it is precisely played and elegantly constructed. But at some point, Rosenau runs out of ideas and to bridge the gap relies on repetition and force. With only seven songs barely topping out at 40 minutes total, perhaps ...
