BARRY GUY / PAUL PLIMLEY - SENSOLOGY (Maya Recordings - 1997): Amazing album of duets between Paul Plimley on piano and Barry Guy on double bass. This two musicians are geniouses as you can hear in the tracks that compose this CD. This are thirteen tracks of pure madness, great improvisation, great compositional skills. The opening with"This is not much less than flat" is full speed with runnings and phrases from both instruments that play different things but in a really coherent way. This CD can open a lot of minds with its music, and with this attitude to music where the important thing is to experiment with mind and body. Jazz, fusion, experimentation, avant garde are some of the words that come to my mind when listening for example "Short steps until it finally dawned" or "Sensology" or "Jazz for now and never more" with their atmospheres and textures. I would like to pinpoint one of the tracks but the whole CD is amazing. Email: maya@eircom.net
