about

Approaching Readiness (Recorded 4/3/00- IL2)

GS: "I often enjoy doing very non-guitarlike things with a guitar- musically speaking, that is!- and being a big fan of early Tangerine Dream, very early Ralph Lundsten and experimental music in general, I like to sneak in guitar interpretations of things like that where I can. This has sometimes led to confusion for the listener and when I was with Paper Bag one of the most common questions I received was "Where's the guitar on (fill in the track)?" One of the many nice things about Jugalbandi is that there is no more need for this question. If it ain't drums, it's guitar, period."

HS: "As soon as I heard how Greg began this piece I knew that it shouldn't have a conventional drum part, so I adopted an orchestral approach that intentionally didn't so much as suggest any sort of pulse or metric structure. The resulting piece wound up being "lead drums" over the sounds and textures that Greg played. Although there's no conventional "beat" or meter, the piece still has a tremendous sense of forward motion, supplied by the constantly shifting percussion patterns played over the almost continuously rumbling bass drums. And true to my experimental progressive rock roots, there's a gong solo during the final minute of the piece."
