Don't know who that is, but as I love Michael Book's sound, I may give some recommandations I feel valid in comparison : You should definitively listen to Absynthe from Naked City (John Zorn)! Though Fred Frith plays in it, Bill Frissell handles the guitars : some of the tracks are really noisy almost post industrial, but track number 7 or 8 is just one of the single purest moment of music ever made... After that, you should try to listen to Bill Frissell's pre 90ies work... There's few albums really completely good, but you'll definitivly find some beautiful landscapes there! Then listen to Jon Hassel's first album and last album for the most beautiful ambient trumpet soundscapes ever played, and lastly his collaborations on the second CD of Re Entry from Techno Animal, their second album and their best work to date! Other records artists of mention : Main, Jim O'Rourke on Staalplaat & Extreme (I mean ONLY those)...

Definitely a nice one. One of my favorite "ambient" albums.

Hey hey ! There's no such thing as a not completely good Frisell album ! ;-) "In Land" and maybe "Is That You ?" would be the ones to check out if you're into Brook's stuff. To be honest their work isn't very similar really. Frisell is an improviser coming out of the (experimental) jazz tradition and Brook is ambient/fourth world or whatever.

"Remove The Need" is his only guitar record on Extreme and it's highly recommended. Beautiful, multiple guitars, resonant drones stuff. A couple of other things you might also enjoy: Roy Montgomery - I'm only familiar with one of his albums, "Temple IV", but it's similar enough to some of that stuff to qualify Robert Fripp & Brian Eno - No Pussyfooting Andrei --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
