Lotus Crash: First Visit
La grammatica prescelta sposa la causa di uno sperimentalismo mai sovrabbondante, sempre lucido, conseguente, attento alle esigenze imposte dalla necessità di dare una forma, un'architettura, perfettamente conchiuse al totale.
Momenti più irriverenti (peraltro senza eccessi) si avvicendano così a situazioni quasi cameristiche (tutto sommato abbastanza rare, in verità), in un itinerario compositivo/improvvisativo di assoluto rigore e felicità ispirativa, doveappuntogesto autoriale e aleatorietà convivono in assoluta armonia, senza frizioni o cesure di sorta. Brani come "Desert Bird," "Ogoni," "Before and the Ghost Dance," il citato "Fate" e "The Forest People," se proprio vogliamo fare qualche titolo, appaiono in tal senso i più emblematici di un album comunque di grande omogeneità anche come livello qualitativo.
