4.0 out of 5 stars
From the New York avant-garde,
By A Customer
This review is from: Don't Blame Me (Audio CD)
"Don't Blame Me" is a must have for Ribot fans and fans of the avant-garde jazz scene. A stark and experimental album, Ribot has reinterpreted a few better-known tunes, placing them well within his own idiom, and also presents some of his own unique compositions.Moody and volatile, for those looking for a new sound, this is an excellent album.

3.0 out of 5 stars
Jazz Guitar on Barbiturates,
By J. Christmas "joshua-one" (New Brunswick, NJ) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Don't Blame Me (Audio CD)
Mark Ribot sleepwalks his way through standards, originals, and a couple of modern jazz classics. His sound is very interesting-- he uses a harsh, broke-down delta bluesy tone and seems to have deliberately detuned his guitar. This I like. The two noise pieces here are also worth listening to. But overall, this just doesn't work as an album. All of the pieces create the exact same deeply depressing mood, and the solo pieces expose Ribot as a second rate jazz guitarist (if not third rate). A few tracks might be good enough to put on a compilation, but skip the album. |
