East of Borneo - Larkspur Sessions
East of Borneo’s Larkspur Sessions will be appreciated by fans of John Zorn, Eugene Chadbourne, Carla Bley and other artists who favor the avant-garde mixed with fun. The trio is a free improvisation ensemble using both acoustic and electronic instrument with the most unusual being the theremin. This may be the first ensemble that I’ve heard in which the strange ghostly sounding theremin holds its own as a member of the group predominantly due to the delicate virtuosity of Lyn Goeringer. Michael DeQuattro plays percussion while Jim Moses adds guitar and bass. The first track titled “Spring Lamb” is a nice taste of the intriguing sounds and beats this album is loaded with. Highly recommended and an early contender for best experimental/improvisation album for 2011.
Just listening to the track ‘Dog Days’ - really think I’m going to like this album - great find Marvin.
