Detroit Improv Duo

Jim Konen (guitars) and Dick Metcalf (aka Rotcod Zzaj, who played Kurzweill PC 88 on this CD).

Konen is famous in his local zone (Detroit/Motown) for some masterful techno guitar playing that he performs as "VisionEar".

Metcalf has been recording and performing around the country (& the world) since about 1975.

“Is this jazz? It depends on who you ask. Is it interesting? On the whole, yes — the Detroit Improv Duo have made a quite interesting disc.” - Ron Davies, SPLENDID Ezine (Mar 01, 2006)

“My no-contest favorite track on the disc is "The Fastrack". Mucho cosmic synths accompany a wildly frenetic keyboard jam to give us a total SPACE jazz experience. This may well be the ultimate marriage of space and jazz” - Jerry Kranitz, Aural Innovations (Mar 07, 2006)
