SwedenWhen
I see a record coming from Canada it always
make me curious, beacuse it's very often high quality stuff that comes
from
that big country. And this is no exception. Richard Addison is a
musician who's
played with the prog band Mystery and he's the founder of the Jazz-Rock
band
Sojourn, he produced their first album. Richard also composed music for
television as well as being an music arranger for several singers. On
his
latest work "Mood Swings" Richard demonstrates his strong composing
approach and certainly creates many kind of mood's which will not leave
any
Prog and Progressive Fusion fans indifferent at all. With him is a 11
piece big
band with excellent musicians (for example electric violin). Musically
it can
be compared to fusion period Zappa, Mahavishnu Orchestra (lots of
violin!) and
Weather Report. Or why not later Isildur’s Bane!
One
of the best instrumental album's so far this
year, probably the best, my advice is buy it, it's great stuff. The missing piece (June 2004) <-Previous review Next review ->
