Bela Fleck Crossing The Tracks CD Notes



So entrenched is banjoist Bela Fleck's reputation as one of bluegrass's most innovative and boundary-demolishing musicians that it's hard to be surprised now by the sounds on his 1979 debut CROSSING THE TRACKS. But taken in historical context, Fleck's first solo album sounded like nothing else on the bluegrass scene, or any other scene for that matter. With healthy doses of jazz, boogie, ballads, and pop all mixed in with old-timey bluegrass, Fleck and his superb acoustic ensemble set about deconstructing the very notion of bluegrass music, a process Fleck would continue for the rest of his career. That journey begins here, and the crisp sound on the 2005 CD reissue makes it all the more enjoyable to revisit.

Dirty Linen (p.45) - "This recording confirms just how innovative and spirited a player Fleck was in the process of becoming, and his song selection underscores his eclectic approach."

Though Bela Fleck's liner notes make it sound like nearly anyone who walked in the studio door was asked to sit in, no musical slouch could keep up with this band of chopsters. The aesthetic soup that Fleck and friends cook up (Bill Monroe meets Weather Report at a world music convention, and that's just the tip of the iceberg) ...

Over the years since Neil Young's godlike status has grown, it is easy to forget about the jaw-dropping breadth of talent that was Crosby, Stills & Nash, his sometimes former bandmates. Crosby had the silken voice, Nash the impossibly high harmony, but as the remarkable official bootleg JUST ROLL TAPE: April 26th 1968 proves the trio was Stephen Stills's. Reportedly recorded in one ...
