Savor the instrumental story telling,
By "carterdrum" (Vermont, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Comb In Blue Water (Audio CD)
The last time I saw this band live was at Bruno's in San Francisco in Fall 1998. The fire-engine red wraparound leather booths and dimly lit, labyrinthine rooms offered a perfect atmosphere for the best lounge core group I've ever heard. "Comb in Blue Water" transmits this feeling, an intimacy not often found on modern studio recordings. Each musician delivers honey-thick fluidity and rich dynamics. The drums throb with deep, roomy themes and melodic transitions on tracks like "Double Naught Spy Car" and "The Mooche". Throughout the album the lap steel lays in a jazz-informed country slidin' twang. The band pays tribute to jazz pianist Thelonius Monk on "In Walked Bud/ Out Walked Bud", an exploration of Monk's original "In Walked Bud". The CD is a gem and a best kept secret everywhere but S.F. and L.A. I feel lucky to have found this music (or did it find me first?). It's infectious from the first listen.

Captain Beefheart went surfing and surfed well. This is the soundtrack.
