From: "Mueller, Carl" Subject: [ILF] NEWS FROM GARY HUSBAND. RE: NEW ALBUM. Date: Mon, 26 Feb 2001 12:36:49 -0500 For everybody's info :-) Carl Mueller webmaster @ forevernow.com http://www.forevernow.com/ ------------------------- There is now a mini production team representing Gary and his musical endeavours - especially active at the moment regarding "THE THINGS I SEE - INTERPRETATIONS OF THE MUSIC OF ALLAN HOLDSWORTH" and it's imminent release, (April 1st.), available exclusively over the www.artofliferecords.com website! Here's what (guitarist and composer supremo) John McLaughlin has recently said ... It has been a considerable time since I heard a truly new kind of recording. This is one of those, and in addition it is from a musician whom I have known and admired for many years, not for his wizardry at the piano, but for his artistry at the drums! As a musician for the great majority of my life, I can inform you that this is no small accomplishment. In this recording we hear him playing the music of another innovator, guitarist Allan Holdsworth, whom he has accompanied at the drums for many years and is intimately acquainted with his music. I recall a concert of Allan in London some years ago, and after the performance I went to see him backstage only to tell him that if I knew what he was doing, I'd steal it! The guitaristic prowess of Allan is well known amongst the musical, and particularly, the guitar community of the world. Along with his mastery, his musical conceptions and compositions are equally well known and admired. It is perhaps the marvellous combination of Gary's immense musical talent as a pianist, and his knowledge of Allan's strange and beautiful music from the point of view as a drummer who knows so well the rhythmic intricacies of his compositions that make this recording so appealing to me. Thanks Gary! John McLaughlin. February, 2001"
