A 1985 leader album by Czech guitarist Rudolf Dašek, known for masterpieces like Jazz on Six Strings. This quartet recording features Czech musicians Karel Růžička (piano) and Zbigniew Wegehaupt (bass), alongside renowned American drummer Andrew Cyrille. Highlights include A1, where Carla Bley’s composition, arranged with a touch of Eastern European folk influences, blends seamlessly with Cyrille’s ethnic-inspired drumming, and B2, a piece that unfolds with intricate, dynamic shifts. The album showcases a unique avant-contemporary jazz approach, filled with deep contrasts and textures. Dašek’s guitar work stands out with its distinctive character.
A1: Olhos de gato
B2: Everything That’s Left
