Ray Anderson's Organic Quartet: Being the Point

Read "Being the Point" reviewed by Stefano Merighi


Un suono scuro, profondo, indeterminato nelle intenzioni, trova improvvisamente la luce del calypso. Una luce che spinge la musica verso una danza sinuosa, scattante. È l'inizio di Being the Point, disco che riporta Ray Anderson alle sue passioni per il blues, per New Orleans, per i ritmi obliqui già frequentati all'epoca di Slickaphonics. ...
