Love That Album Episode 80 - Interview with Bill Frisell




Love That Album show

Summary: <br> Welcome to episode 80 of Love That Album podcast.<br> Due to time commitments this month, I am using the<br> opportunity to bring you a couple of old interviews from 2001 that I did during<br> my time at a local public access station. I am extremely proud of these interviews<br> and I hope you dig them.<br> On this episode, I am presenting a chat I had with one of my<br> most favourite musicians ever, Bill Frisell. He is one of those few musicians<br> whose style is instantly identifiable. Regardless of whether you’ve heard a<br> particular tune or not, you KNOW it’s Frisell when you hear the music play.<br> He’s known as a jazz and country player, but also as someone who loves sonic<br> experiments. He’s been a session man for many (including Marianne Faithfull,<br> Elvis Costello, and Ginger Baker), written the music for the Far Side animated<br> series as well as for new scores for Buster Keaton films, and played with<br> multiple ensembles of his own.<br> Since this interview was recorded, he’s recorded many more<br> albums and has toured Australia (the question of a tour is brought up in the<br> chat). In 2001 he put out two brilliant albums (including one with Elvin Jones,<br> drummer for John Coltrane!!!!!) He was a charming and very humble interview<br> subject. I loved having this chat, and I hope you dig it too.<br> Bruce Wooley and The Camera Club  is the focus of Eric Reanimator’s “Album I<br> Love” segment. He talks about their album English Garden. “Who are they?” you<br> ask. “Have they done anything I’d know?” Abso-bloody-lutely. Eric will reveal<br> all.<br> You can<br> download the show by searching for Love That Album in the iTunes store or<br> downloading streaming directly from  <a href="http://lovethatalbum.blogspot.com/">http://lovethatalbum.blogspot.com</a><br> Send the<br> show feedback at rrrkitchen@yahoo.com.au (written or mp3 voicemail) or join the<br> Facebook group at <a href="http://www.facebook.com/groups/lovethatalbum">http://www.facebook.com/groups/lovethatalbum</a><br> If you<br> enjoy what you hear, please tell a friend or ten to tune in.<br>
