“Strange meetings of the mysterious and the earthy, the melancholy and the giddy, make perfect sense by Frisell’s deliciously warped way of thinking. The warpage is catching on and not a moment too soon.”

“With this set of music for the classic Buster Keaton film, “Go West,” Bill Frisell has crafted one of his finest, most evocative albums. Evincing his best qualities as both guitarist and composer, he harvests melancholy Americana from deceptively modest, episodic themes. Coloring the scenes with acoustic as well as his trademark electric, Frisell produces strangely cinematic motifs on guitar, and his rhythm cohorts – longtime bassist Kermit Driscoll and drummer Joey Baron – provide abundant narrative drive.” -Billboard

Quartet may be his masterpiece.”

“Quartet makes the most out of a variety of feelings. The composer has equal acumen in waxing forlorn and waxing frivolous…Frisell’s instrument is one of contemporary jazz’s utterly singular voices.”-Billboard

Lee Townsend, prod.; Judy Clapp, eng.

Performance *****
Sonics *****

Bill Frisell is a soulful jazz minimalist with a sophisticated sense of harmony, a daring rhythmic approach, and an instantly recognizable, personal sound–as if Carl Perkins and Duane Eddy took on Otis Rush and Bill Evans in a bridge tournament. Every note is carefully sculpted, imbued with a bluesy, lightly Echoplexed halo, and elongated like taffy in a manner suggestive of the enigmatic Peter Green. Upon occasion, Bill will transmogrify into an 800-lb gorilla with a touch of distortion, but more often than not this affable galoot is content to make bricks with straw–a remarkable melodist who can transmute single notes into sapphire tears.

For those more impressed with the meat than the motion, Frisell’s floor routine may seem simplistic. Besides, why would someone who […]

REVIEWS

“The delicate interplay … between pianist Hersch and guitarist Frisell … brings freshness and understated luster to it all.”
Entertainment Weekly

“These guys are too distinctive to clone the past. Their romanticism is edged with a contemporary tartness, a tangy irony that infuses canny arrangements and biting solos. And so they remap and reinvigorate … standards like “What is This Thing Called Love?” and “I Got Rhythm” in sly, appealing and often hilarious ways.”

REVIEWS

“Bill Frisell makes such consistently great records that it would be easy to take the guitarist for granted. That would be sad, since no one refracts age-old Americana through a cutting-edge prism with the warm-hearted, fleet-minded individuality of Frisell. With “Good Dog, Happy Man,” he has crafted one of his earthiest essays yet – a sort of funky follow-up to his sublime “Nashville” album from 1997. Backed by an ultra-hip band – pedal-steel artisan Greg Leisz, bassist Viktor Krauss, organ grinder Wayne Horvitz, and drum legend Jim Keltner – Frisell has forged originals whose folky melodies and big-sky grooves make them seem like old friends in snazzy new clothes. Tellingly, the outfit channels the traditional “Shenandoah” with Ry Cooder in tow, and its sepia-toned melancholy pairs perfectly with Frisell’s dusty ballads, like the […]
