ELECTRIC MASADA - AT THE MOUNTAINS OF MADNESS

  • electric masada: at the mountains of madness
        (2005, 2cd, usa, tzadic)
Electric Masada is one of John Zorn's many projects.

"At The Mountains Of Madness" is the second album by the Electric Masada band. The album presents two discs. The first one recorded live in Moscow in 2004, the second on in Ljubljana the same year.

Featuring John Zorn, Joey Baron, Marc Ribot and Trevor Dunn, just to name half of the octet, the ensemble combines hard bop power and speed with beautiful solos and melodies.

It's pretty remarkable that the both shows have more or less the same setlist, yet the music sounds so different.
Wonderful.
