Re: Monsters of Loop - Bill Frisell



Another one I have been listening to is Frisell with Naked City-The Grand 
Guignol.
Hard to tell how much looping but alot of very cool stuff by all. Intense! 
The first half is long compositions with the second half very short tunes 
of 
many styles, I mean Many!
