Synopsis

Album Description

"A fantastic-sounding record?the music is laid-back and a bit melancholy, with a layered folk-rock eclecticism?time and again it manages to be both tuneful and highly angular in the same breath." -ALL MUSIC GUIDE The follow-up to Forever features a similar mix of memorable melodies and alert interplay in even better audiophile sound. Received 4 stars from All Music Guide and called "accessible and highly original" by Audiophile Audition.

CD Reviews

Sweeter indeed!

David Egan | Seattle, WA USA | 07/24/2002

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is the followup CD to "Forever" (formerly "American Bandstand") from Wayne Horvitz and Zony Mash acoustic. It's another collection of pianistic tone poems, introverted, but no less than ravishingly beautiful. It's hard to call this jazz exactly - I think of it more as songs Debussy or Ravel might have written had they lived today and had some jazz influence. This is definitely on my top 10 list for the year. Try it - you won't be dissapointed!"

Ethereal feeling

"This cd is new... It's different. Wayne Horvitz expresses a beautiful melancholy I've found nowhere else. Listen to the first few measures of the firt song... And the little parade... it expresse something... something like... nostalgic childishness. Oh, it's good."
