BRUFORD: ROCK GOES TO COLLEGE

http://www.brufordrockgoestocollege.co.uk/ - www.brufordrockgoestocollege.co.uk

At last! Here's your chance to be one of the few to own a Special Edition
copy of the brand-new Winterfold DVD Bruford : Rock Goes To College.

This classic 42 minute all-regions concert DVD was filmed at Oxford Polytechnic
March 7th 1979. The band only made two appearances in its short life, both on
national UK TV shows, with this being the second of the two. It was a
groundbreaking electric rock group four of whose members- Allan Holdsworth,
Jeff Berlin, Annette Peacock and Bill Bruford- already possessed or went on
to develop, individual voices within jazz. Keyboardist Dave Stewart
subsequently achieved substantial success in the pop singles world with
Barbara Gaskin.

This DVD is released intially as a Special Edition, limited to 500 copies, and
only purchaseable by mail-order at http://www.brufordrockgoestocollege.co.uk/ - www.brufordrockgoestocollege.co.uk ,
before reverting to general release. Special Edition copies only will be numbered,
autographed by all five members of the group, and come in Special Edition artwork.
This is a chance to be the first to own a limited edition copy of this quite unique band
in concert. This item is expected to sell out fast, so for clips from the DVD, more
information and purchase details hurry to http://www.brufordrockgoestocollege.co.uk/ - www.brufordrockgoestocollege.co.uk


"Bruford organically fuses jazz's harmonic and melodic breadth with the
rhythmic impetuosity and electric bite of rock. Bruford's concepts take a
backseat to no-one; not Weather Report, Gary Burton, Terje Rypdal or John
McLaughlin" Downbeat [*****] USA


"...brimming with some of the most creative talent in contemporary
improvisational music" Sounds UK


"For ten years, through sojourns with King Crimson, Yes, Genesis and other
bands, Bruford has steadily increased his reputation as one of the world's
most intelligent and accomplished percussionists."

Sunday Times UK 1979

Pricey, but it's most likely worth it, even though the DVD is incedibly shortOuch
