Great list. "Animato" is another really interesting CD of his that I like...has an odd and deep sort of Nordic/Scandinavian feel to it....with John Christensen on percussion. ECM Records has an informative discography of his works, with a lot of credits, etc. http://www.ecmrecords.com/ Sound Samples http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/clipserve/B00000DTFM001003/1/002-90372 92-3866461 http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/clipserve/B00000DTFM001005/1/002-90372 92-3866461 http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/clipserve/B00000DTFM001004/1/002-90372 92-3866461 Kris -----Original Message----- From: Wind-stick Devil [mailto:wklemmer1@yahoo.com] Sent: Tuesday, May 03, 2005 8:26 AM To: Loopers-Delight@loopers-delight.com Subject: Re: John Abercrombie Some of his early stuff (which contains my favorite album Arcade) was only ON vinyl until relatively recently. I finally managed to obtain a CD copy of the album a few months back after repeatedly copying the LP to cassette tape and then more recently to CD. Here's an interesting link of what's available for John Abercrombie. http://www.musicstack.com/search/abercrombie,john Brakophonic <brakophonic@telia.com> wrote: Just put the lp on forgot that i had that one i'ts probably mutlitracked and not looped as you mentioned but there's a lot of repetitive stuff going on there great album , cheers for bringing it to my attention i haven't listened to it for years but i had the fortune to get hold of my old vinylplayer and slowly rediscovering the lps there's a lot of good recordings with de johnette and abercrombie apart from the gateway albums there's the directions and new directions Gunnar Backman Brak(E)man Prod/Brakophonics E-mail brakophonic@telia.com http://www.brakophonic.com 2005-05-03 kl. 09.39 Andreas Willers wrote : > Yeah, John is the man!
