APPLETON JON & DON CHERR - VINYL HUMAN MUSIC [VINYL]

Popis - HUMAN MUSIC [VINYL]:
Jon Appleton was an early pioneer of electronic music in America. He established his first primitive studio whilst studying at the University of Oregon in the mid-'60s. It was probably Bob Thiele's idea to put Appleton and Don Cherry together. Thus, Cherry went to Appleton's electronic music studio at Dartmouth College to record an album of improvisations, which resulted in the album 'Human Music'. Apparently, laid down live the four extended tracks are sparse, spacious and a compelling listen and where jazz meets early electronica. As a jazz musician, Cherry not only played wood, bamboo and metal flutes, kalimbas, drums, coronet with traditional mouthpiece and bamboo reed but listened to Appleton's oscillations to ensure that his parts fit into this unlikely musical jigsaw.
