CURLEW - CBGB 1987 / TAKTLOS FESTIVAL 1986

  • Curlew: CBGB 1987 - Taktlos Festival 1986
        (2023, download, --, bandcamp / cuneiform)
Even an established record label as Cuneiform Records is releasing the majority of their new releases as download-only albums. The only exceptions are those artists for which a decent CD sale is expected.

One of the possible advantages of releasing digital download or streaming albums might be that it becomes more easy to release them.
I assume Curlew's "CBGB 1987 / Taktlos Festivak 1986" is such an example.

Curlew's experimental jazz albums have been released by Cuneiform since 1980 !
Led by George Cartwright (sax), both Fred Frith and Bill Laswell have been part of the band at some point.

Experimental jazz.
Great stuff.
  • George Cartwright - saxophones
  • Wayne Horvitz - keyboard and keyboard bass
  • Pippin Barnett - drums
  • Tom Cora - cello
  • Davey Williams - guitar
