BRIGHT LIGHT IN WINTER is the long-awaited
third album by Chicago guitarist Jeff Parker.
With his associates Chris Lopes (bass)
and Chad Taylor (drums), this trio continues
their examination of our post-modern musical
universe via tuneful compositions by all three
members, and an elastic, dynamic approach
to improvisation and group interplay - rooted
in our familiar musical traditions, but also
searching for the new ones. Recorded
and mixed by Bundy K. Brown. Also available:
Jeff Parker, Like-Coping (Delmark 543)
with Chris Lopes and Chad Taylor. "Jeff Parker
is arguably the most exciting and thoughtful
jazz guitarist of the past two decades, a
masterful free improviser who's also fluent
in everything from postbop to postrock." -
Chicago Reader.
