Short promotional video for the new CD, "The Rub And Spare Change" on ECM, by Michael Formanek, featuring Tim Berne on Alto Saxophone, Craig Taborn on Piano, Gerald Cleaver on Drums, and Michael Formanek on Bass.
I like compositions very much but ECM always flatten sound, especially drumming. It must be order and every record must sound identically, very german :-]. Collection of ECM records resembles collection of death butterflies in album.
wish I could have made it to the Blue Whale tonight .. next time

Wonderfully done. The music is haunting and vibrant. Can't wait to see them at Blue Whale tonight in Los Angeles.
