bickster Posted April 7, 2018 Moderator Share Posted April 7, 2018 Mind over Mirrors: Bellowing Sun Todays speculative purchase Quote With his evolving project Mind Over Mirrors, Chicago-based musician and composer Jaime Fennelly premieres Bellowing Sun, a work that creates an aural prism through the layering of acoustic and electronic instruments. A departure from Fennelly’s solo practice as a harmoniumist and synthesist, Bellowing Sun also includes vocalist and percussionist Janet Beveridge Bean, violinist Jim Becker, and percussionist Jon Mueller—four musicians who share an interest in the intersections of the American vernacular and contemporary avant-garde. Bellowing Sun is performed with the audience encircling the musicians underneath a large kinetic sculpture. The visual centerpiece, designed in collaboration with Timothy Breen, Eliot Irwin, and Keith Parham, was hand-built in the shape of a great lighted drum. A rotating cylindrical textile adorned with patterns, abstract figures, and dyed gradients creates an ever-changing kaleidoscope of organic shapes and color that simultaneously form celestial bodies and microscopic life forms. The radiant audiovisual environment results in a space, not unlike a Quaker meeting room, for people to withdraw from daily life and consider questions of the human spirit link Verdict after side A - quite like it, it's quite trippy in its own way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seat68 Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 (edited) Now this. I may have said this before but it astounds me that this band are considered throwaway, a superb album. Edited April 12, 2018 by Seat68 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 First time I've ever got this particular guy in the record shop to talk! He was absolutely gushing about this album and his written me a couple of other things to get once I've listened to this. I told him I was buying it without knowing anything on there but that I'd heard something I liked but I couldn't remember (posted somewhere on here actually) by Gene Clark so I was buying it as a punt. He then gave me a quick biog of Gene Clark and his musical family tree. Never seen him so animated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a pretty damn good compilation, all stuff I've been into for years - although much of it is not remotely 'country'. If any tracks particularly take your fancy, I can point you in the direction of further listening. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On record, I like their proggy jamming era, the lightweight country stuff not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
