Prism Mirror Lens - psg/saxophone album

Post by Susan Alcorn (deceased) »

Definitely not a Ray Price shuffle.

Here is a track from an album that saxophonist Phillip Greenlief and I recorded 2 1/2 years ago in Long Beach, California. Everything on the record is improvised (we played by feel, and we listened to each other), so of course one take. Phillip and I have known each other and played together off and on for some years, partly as a result of us each having been close to the composer Pauline Oliveros. We did a tour of California, and at the very end, recorded this album (many thanks to Tim Marcus for use of a Milkman amp in San Francisco and to John Mitgard for the use of his amp for the rst of the tour and this recording). Phillip is an amazing, and under-appreciated musician. It was a thrill to play with him.

The record will be released sometime later this month.

I hope you enjoy the music.

Enjoyed that. The timbre of the saxophone and steel guitar creates some really interesting interplay. I'm a fairly rudimentary R&B sax player but I appreciate those that push the boundaries. Be sure to let us know when the full recording is available.

Bill, John, and Bo, if you're still interested in this, the album was released a little over a month ago. Here is the link to purchase it:

https://vgplusrecords.bandcamp.com/alb ... ror-lens-2

It's available on vinyl and by download (there were only 300 lp's pressed) - if you decide to get it, I hope you like the music.
