Product Description

9 Lazy 9 joined Ninja Tune when Ninja Tune was just one grey metal cupboard in a run down London loft. Operating out of Italy in 1992 they soon gained respect for their ground cracking first album Paradise Blown. Their sound, distinctively more sun than North Sea, is a smoky Mediterranean mix of vines & good times. Keir Fraserello & Giacomo Braddellini have been making music for many years in different guises before combining forces in Rome in the early nineties. They have been working with some of Italy's finest musicians on their latest album, Sweet Jones, recorded in the Umbrian Hills near Orvietto. Gianluca Petrella plays trombone, Mishael Levron guitar, Manu Bandettini plays flute with Adriano Tirelli on bassoon. The combined force brings you one of the freshest records to come out of Italy for some time. 9 Lazy 9 features James Bradell aka Funki Porcini. Ninja Tune. 12 tracks. 2003.

5.0 out of 5 stars a good ride, January 30, 2005

By	Jennifer M. McAdam - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I would agree with the past customer in saying this is a different kind of album for 9 lazy 9. And that is what makes it so great. It is an album that I can listen to over and over and always find new things. I can work to it, drive to it, wake up to it, fall to sleep to it. When I can find something like that to have in my life I really respect an artist. So I say enjoy the ride and give it a listen.

2.0 out of 5 stars A disappointment, August 25, 2004

By	J. Davidson "obsessive music fanatic" (Boston, MA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

A very ambient album. Nowhere near as groovy or acid-jazzy as their other work (which I really dig). A good album to put on if you want to fall asleep.
