It is all acoustic and fairly gentle in most spots. But as would be expected, technically brilliant. If you are familiar with each independant of each other, you will find that each brings their classic sound to the table and mesh them quite elegantly. They do an outstanding cover of Brazil.

got it in the mail this morning...........so i put Cipher's Elemental Forces cd in the car and took Double Talk to the office.
Cipher - Elemental Forces (not as 'dark' as the review made out to be, but nice, chilled ambient minimal fusion utilising loops & electronics, bit in the vein of Steve Tibbets with a more pastoral vibe)
Theo Travis - Double Talk (excellent jazz rock with great ambient passages esp track 2.......yes i can hear the slightly proggish influences in there.......nice!)
thanks for the recommnedation! and how was Supersilent 5? hehehhe any plans for more from those Viking greats?

Absorbing two album from Eivind Aarset, including (critically acclaimed) latest - in comparison Supersilent 5 is considerably more of a challenge. One problem is that I've been seeking quick-to-grab tracks for the radio show and SS5 on first hearing doesn't immediately provide - and hence it is getting less attention than it deserves (hence an album that will get played and appreciated in a few weeks time when there is more time to relax and listen for my own sake).
In the meanwhile, I've picked up a heavily recommended album by the Fusenet (jazzrock fusion discussion group) site: T Latvitz's School Of The Arts. Semi-unplugged jazz fusion by pianist Latvitz, with Frank Gambale, John Patitucci, Dave Weckl, plus Steve Morse and Jerry Goodman guesting separately on two or three tracks. Oddly only Patitucci appears to go electric on a couple of tunes.

ah yes i understand. Actually Supersilent 6 is the most accessible and melodic album thus far. I could imagine being able to play the pieces esp track 2 on radio. |

http://www.boomkat.com/item.cfm?id=12774 check out Supersilent 6. Glacial, sound-trackish, their most ECM-like album w/ hints of postrock.
Now listening to:
Gamalon - s/t (jazz rock from '87....got that cheesy 80s production but hey i like!!!)

this has to come back. what with all these fusion polls and such, this thread MUST come back. anyone heard Zappa's new album "Zappa\Wazoo" yet? it has the Grand Wazoo playing live, so basically it's the most serious Zappa Fusion ever. other than that im chillin on some Mingus Ah Um. such a classic album.
Stevie Wonder

Still waiting from my ordered copy to arrive. Good noises being made about it by American purchasers on the Fusenet website, so thought I would take the risk, especially with Nels Cline involved.
