Author: Marc Ribot

Release Date: 21-07-1998

Details: Amazon.ca Whether playing noir-like pop with the Lounge Lizards or downtown avant garde with John Zorn, guitarist Marc Ribot has always been drawn to the musical margins--a place where jazz is just one of many colours. He emerged in the 1970s, and seems to bring that era's punkish attitude to bear on all he plays. In this 1998 masterpiece, he offers gloriously disheveled readings of the music of the veteran Cuban composer Arsenio Rodriguez and others. Despite the "prosthetic" of the band name he creates a very convincing period sound. His guitar has the scratchy, distorted tone so typical of the overloaded amplifiers of the 1950s and the arrangements enhance the raw, edgy atmosphere. The set is full of evocations of old Havana which either drowse in a heat haze or dance like the carnival, but Ribot adds his own touches, including rough-hewn jazz lines and carefully judged rock & roll feedback. --Mark Gilbert Product Description Marc Ribot - widely regarded as one of the world's most inventive and adventurous guitarists - makes his Atlantic Records debut with a new collection defined by its edgy and electric tones, punky and loose attitude. Ribot and Co. (including bassist Brad Jones of the Jazz Passengers and Ornette Coleman's Prime Time; percussionist EJ Rodriguez; organ player John Medeski of Medeski, Martin and Wood; and drummer Robert J. Rodriguez of Miami Sound Machine) have brilliantly condensed legendary Cuban composer, Arsenio Rodriguez's large ensemble arrangements to suit a stripped-down sound of guitar, bass, conga, and occasional keyboard.
