REVIEW: ALTERATIONS - LIVE RECORDINGS 1980-1983

 

ALTERATIONS - LIVE RECORDINGS 1980-83 (Intuitive Recs. - 2000): This recording is made by three Live Recordings by the group Alterations made in London, January 1st 1980; Copenhagen, May 10th 1981 and Frankfurt, May 2nd 1983. The three tracks have different qualities and demonstrates the improvisational and exprimental sound of this band who uses conventional and unconventional instruments to creat their intuitive music. It is interesting to see how they evolved in the three years that this recording shows. The two more recent tracks are constructed in a different way, more melodic and they are over thirty minutes long. It is always interesting to listen to what four great musicians like this ones (Steve Beresford - piano, Peter Cusack - guitars, Terry Day - percussion and David Toop - flutes) can achieve. This recording is for people that are not scared of listening boundaries breaking music. Contact: http://hjem.get2net.dk/intuitive
