John Adams: Nixon In China
$15.05
Debut solo piano session by Norwegian pianist/composer, who's led the ECM projects Masqualero, Magnetic North Orchestra and Batagraf. Nineteen pieces, many of them beautiful miniatures that blend intricvate composition with improvisation.
Jon Balke is a pianist from Norway whose music criss-crosses the genres of jazz, rock, and New Age. While he's performed and recorded with groups such as Magnetic North Orchestra and Oslo 13, BOOK OF VELOCITIES presents Balke alone, unplugged, and unedited. BOOK is practically just that, a collection of 19 short instrumental chapters, wherein Balke explores the entire piano, inside and out. But this album isn't merely a collection of vague or haphazard sounds. There is a logic guiding his vignettes, an abstract but very deliberate structure and plot to each note played. If one is in the mood for some challenging beauty on the 88's, Balke's BOOK is worth exploring.
Personnel: Jon Balke (piano).
| | King Diamond The Graveyard CD (1996) Bonus Tracks; Reissue; Remastered; Enhanced CD
John Adams: Nixon In China
$11.49
When King Diamond emerged with the archetypal black metal outfit Mercyful Fate in the early '80s, his alarmingly satanic lyrics were downright scary. But as a solo artist, he has become a reliable source of harmless, B-movie horror fun with his well-done concept albums. The Graveyard isn't one of his best, due to less memorable material and a tight, dry production which, while it sounds cleaner than that of earlier albums like Fatal Portrait and Abigail, doesn't convey the dark theatricality of the material as well as those albums do. Diamond's backing band never disappoints, however; guitarists Andy LaRocque and Herb Simonsen contribute plenty of flawless neo-classical solos with imagination and spirit. ~ Andy Hinds
