Gerald Gradwohl Group - ABQ Live and Raw
The now released live-album „ABQ – Live & Raw“ contains compositions, band interplay and improvisations in more then high-class performance.That evening all the band, Gerald Gradwohl (git), Kirk Covington (dr), Thomas Kugi (ts) and Harald Weinkum (b), broke all boundaries and let “it” just flow in a stream of extreme harmony in collective musical ecstasy.Besides Geralds originals the innovative interpretation of Coltrane’s “Giant Steps” lets the guitar and saxophone explore all thinkable improvisation spheres. In Willis’ “Bowlegged”, a medium shuffle funk, bluesy phrases and groovy rhythm patterns go together well. Weinkum’s “Good Run” sets the pace for jazzy vibes for his fellow musicians and the audience - the rest of the composition becomes the basis for the highly energetic concert full of virtuosity due to the bandleader Gerald Gradwohl himself. Another unique attraction of this live recording lies in the genuine, direct sound – no track recording or overdubs – just simple stereo-miking was used! “ABQ – Live & Raw” is the perfect “live-equivalent” for the fantastic album “ABQ”, which was released in 2003 more infos: www.gradwohl.at
