Shimri

Vinyl LP.

Nära nyskick. LP, ECM 1082 (1976 / 1976). Arild Andersen b, Juhani Aaltonen ts/ss/fl/perc, Lars Jansson p, Pål Thowsen dr/perc."On Shimri, musical release floats in suspension, grooves are coyly offered then withdrawn, swing is used sparingly, subtly, making only an occasional splash in the ripples of intimate conversation among the members of Arlid Andersen's outstanding quartet....Call it the tantric sex approach to jazz....Ultimately, a full and final release arrives during the nearly 12-minute final track, "Dedication," one of four originals by Andersen. The track begins with Aaltonen's tenor, purposefully plaintive and insecure. The full quartet then move the music to more serene waters. Midway, Aaltonen emerges again, raising the heat with passionate, self-assured statements, before going unaccompanied on a lengthy, shrieking, meltdown of a cadenza that provides the album's unequivocal resolution. Worth waiting for? Oh yes, but not for the impatient." (Jim Todd, allmusic.com)6 spår; speltid 41:40. Vinyl Nära nyskick . Tysk pressning. Ngn laminatlossning framsidan.
