about

Solos: The Jazz Sessions gets up close and personal with guitar master Bill Frisell. This rare solo work is an intimate journey into his electric guitar wizardry, including an exclusive interview with Frisell. "It's a weird thing playing solo", Frisell divulges to JAZZ TIMES, "I live for the interaction with other musicians because when you put something out there, you get something in return, and you are able to build momentum. When you perform solo, it just goes out into space, and you have to come up with ideas right away to follow it up. I learned to allow silence when playing by myself. There's really something special about one person sitting and playing guitar. I'm really happy with how this project turned out. Daniel [Berman - Producer] created such an amazing atmosphere in which to play music."

"It's hard to find a more fruitful meditation on American music than in the compositions of guitarist Bill Frisell. Mixing rock and country with jazz and blues, he's found what connects them: improvisation and a sense of play. Unlike other pastichists, who tend to duck passion, Mr. Frisell plays up the pleasure in the music and also takes on another often-avoided subject, tenderness." - The New York Times
