专辑介绍
by Scott Yanow
This matchup was certainly an unlikely one. The innovative avant-garde guitarist Derek Bailey and the popular and influential Pat Metheny were probably not automatically destined to collaborate. But at the Knitting Factory for a few nights in December 1996 with both Gregg Bendian and Paul Wertico on drums and percussion, Bailey and Metheny joined as one titanic force. It was not a matter of meeting halfway; instead, Metheny willingly played Bailey's free-form music on its own terms. The problem with the results, which have been released as a low-priced three-CD set, is that the music is unremittingly intense, and even during the rare quiet moments, there is little sign of development. Essentially a series of sound explorations with no real beginning or end, the 3 hours and 13 minutes are dominated by noise, dense ensembles and feedback. In other words, this is a real bore for jazz purists.

- @长青旅人：在这里Derek Bailey可以和Pat Metheny一样时而来点娘娘腔。Pat Metheny也可以和Derek Bailey一样炮制出尖啸的闪电。如果你只是当这是张自由即兴作品来听，那一定是误解了这群疯子的好意。这四个奔离出自我肉体的游魂。创造了一张意识流的杰作。曲目其实没有意思，其实那些根本不重要。因为从第一秒开始到最后就几乎没停止过一秒。 Drums, Vibraphone – Gregg Bendian, Paul Wertico Technician [Guitar Technicia-Carloyn Chrzan
- @长青旅人：二人都在ECM出版过作品。可实际上Derek Bailey只在ECM出版过三张早期的作品，Pat Metheny开始在ECM出版专辑时。Derek Bailey已经在自我独立世界开始了漫游。要感谢Paul Wertico的神来之笔将两位风格非常风马牛不相及的人物拉在一起。于1996年12月12-15号三天以不同的主题开始了一场对他们自己和听众漫长的煎熬。并很可能因此导致集体沦丧。幸好这一切并没有发生 从CD 1开场零落的掌声开始。由鼓手Gregg Bendian和打击乐手Paul Wertico带入Derek Bailey扭曲吉他到Pat Metheny的细腻华丽。这四个人就彻底成了外星来物
- @长青旅人：Pat Metheny, Derek Bailey, Gregg Bendian, Paul Wertico Album: The Sign Of 4 Genre: Avantgarde, Free Improvisation Label: Knitting Factory Works Recording: 2016 1996年，两位吉他手，两位鼓手（打击乐手），一个不太正常的组合，5天时间，录制了这个3CD的盒子。对于Derek Bailey来说，这是个完全的例外，起码和Pat Metheny在一起玩就是个意外。 能让Derek Bailey与Pat Metheny呆在一起捣鼓出一张作品
- @rhetttsai(其后)：哇～
- @Funkyrie(摁摁星人)：绝对的实验...听不懂
