Ted Daniel's Energy Module: Innerconnection

by Vincenzo Roggero
May 6, 2015

Innerconnection è l'ennesimo capitolo della preziosa opera di recupero da parte della label lituana No Business nei confronti di artisti di valore non sempre adeguatamente riconosciuti o protagonisti di lavori comparsi come meteore nel panorama discografico dell'epoca. È il caso di questa formazione di alto profilo assemblata dal trombettista Ted Daniel, e messa su vinile nell'autunno 1975, durante le uniche due esibizioni live della sua brevissima storia. Siamo in piena loft-generation -il disco è stato registrato a ...

April 5, 2015

Although 72-year old trumpeter Ted Daniel remains active on the scene -courtesy of his Duology partnership with clarinetist Michael Marcus, and his own International Brass and Membrane Corps -a significant part of his recent output has focused on archival recordings.
