Guitar In The Space Age! Buy Cheap Footlocker Finishline

On this brand new album, guitarist and composer Bill Frisell mines the catalog of the guitar-based music from the 1950s and 1960s that first inspired him to pick up the instrument. This performance promises a rare look into Bill Frisell’s formative influences, from a time when the electric guitar was in its infancy and creating a startlingly new sound, pushing popular music into the future.Joining Frisell for this album of musical memories are the members of his working trio, bassist Tony Scherr and drummer Kenny Wollesen, along with frequent collaborator Greg Liesz, a master of lap and pedal steel guitars.This superb quartet explores the music of Pete Seeger, The Byrds, Junior Wells, rock pioneers Duane Eddy, Link Wray and The Kinks, surf music legends The Beach Boys, Dick Dale, The Ventures and The Astronauts, and country music stars Chet Atkins, Speedy West, Jimmy Bryant and Merle Travis, with Frisell’s own compositions sprinkled in.”After playing for more than 50 years, it just feels right to once again play some of the music which shaped my consciousness during my formative years, even to play some of it for the first time…and maybe get it right.” (Bill Frisell)180 gram audiophile vinyl Insert Brand new album!Tour dates 2014October 24, 2014 Cormons, Italy Teatro ComunaleOctober 25, 2014 Salzburg, Austria Republic TheatreOctober 26, 2014 Zagreb, CroatiaOctober 27, 2014 Torino, Italy General Store Scuola HoldenOctober 28, 2014 Nantes, France La Cite des CongresOctober 30, 2014 Ghent, Belgium Handelsbeurs ConcertzaalOctober 31, 2014 Tallinn, Estonia Russian Cultural CentreNovember 1, 2014 Tampere, Finland Tullikamarin KlubiNovember 2, 2014 Köln, Germany StadtgartenNovember 3, 2014 Rüsselsheim, Germany Theater RüsselsheimNovember 4, 2014 Bologna, Italy Unipol AuditoriumNovember 6, 2014 Sarajevo, Bosnia – Herzegovina Jazz Fest SarajevoNovember 7, 2014 Szeged, HungaryNovember 8, 2014 Budapest, Hungary Trafo – House of Contemporary ArtsNovember 10, 2014 Gothenburg, Sweden Stenhammarsalen, Gothenburg Concert HallNovember 11, 2014 Bielsko Biala, PolandNovember 12, 2014 Bergen, Norway Sardinen USFNovember 13, 2014 Oslo, Norway Cosmopolite SceneNovember 14, 2014 Nevers, France Maison de la CultureNovember 15, 2014 Cenon, France Le Rocher de PalmerNovember 16, 2014 London, UK Barbican Hall
