CD Reviews

Words are inadequate
Paul Crossley | UK | 12/29/2002
(4 out of 5 stars)

"I paraphrase Joan le Barbara from the liner notes - really there are no words that can describe how important this CD could become to you. Palestine, in a feat of almost supernatural endurance, repeats only two notes (?) the whole piece, but alters their sound using the pedals and his attack/rhythm, sustaining an hour long drone that changes perpetually, and beautifully. You may never get past the first thirty minutes - how often do you get to listen to anything for longer than that? - but once you get to twenty minutes you'll be ready to testify that you've only ever listened to one kind of music all your life - strumming music."
