about

Elemental Guitar (1994/1995) was my way of getting back into guitar playing. I used the same looping system I used for Maximum Electric Piano and did mild touring up and down the east coast and New England. But the set-up was flawed in attempting to be a surrogate rock band. To my ears, the most successful tracks are the Dream Interpretations, especially No.8. But I am also partial to the live performance of Jimi Hendrix's "Are You Experienced" on WMBR. Elemental Guitar is the precursor for my current "Book of Dreams" Guitar music, which utilizes a much richer set of devices and loops than was available at the end of the last century. Elemental Guitar was originally released by SST. Thanks Greg, Ron and Sydney and the rest at that time!

Ah, another unpassable Cuneiform Records' special deal! Might the monarch mentioned in the album's title be wearing a Crimson robe? That's at least one facet of this album, sometimes sounding somewhat like the 80s (instrumental) Crimson with a horn section. Frank Zappa's rockier bigband-like outfits might be a reference point in other places... Anyways, when an album makes me think of Crimson and/or Zappa, it can't be bad, right? ;-) Carsten Pieper

Amazing! There is a little slice of everything in this collection: some cool prog rhythm, some slick composing, some avant soloing, some nice collaboration. All that with a pretty cool vibe. Nice going Curlew! cellostuff
