Incredible Riley.......2006-02-17
i've had the time to really dig into this cd and i am still amazed at these early experiments.Most of them are done from recordings made by a mid sixties Chet Baker (!) and his group. And Riley then starts messing around with these recordings sending Baker to a whole different plateau. There are other tracks which are equally interesting and more in the nature of later works. Overall, a one-of-a-kind experience.Recommended to searchers of original avant, recording experimentation and jazz.
