A twofer made up of a studio recording and a live set, the bass ace finds himself in the company of two different drummers, each bringing a different coloration to the sound. Never straying far from his jazz/new age/world vibe, if you listen to this on a play list and don't check what's going on, you could almost mistake this for an Oregon record you thought you missed. A defining alt.jazz set, Friesen sets sails for uncharted waters but never slides into creativity for the sake of creativity headed for the abstruse. A fine set for left field ears looking for something more.
