about

In June of 2023 I went to the Jack Straw Studios in Seattle to record for 3 hours on their very lovely Steinway B piano. I recorded a few compositions, but within an hour I was set on making the focus of this recording a set of improvisations with no formal compositional content.

The set is a mix of acoustic, amplified, and prepared piano. Most of the pieces come in at about 2-4 minutes. Although not a pop artist per se, I suppose I still love a 3 minute song.

Hope you enjoy the music!

I remember seeing Bloodcount play at Leeds Irish Centre about this time…the band very nearly outnumbered the audience… but it was one of the best gigs (out of very many) I ever saw and the band were terrific…on fire…25 years ago!! Who says you can’t time travel? This rediscovered recording took me right back…what a find! Thanks Tim…Love & Respect. Marc Ducret? My wife remembered his “scary sunglasses”… John Cratchley
