I mentioned before that I'd failed to grasp what was special about Bill Frisell when I first came across him. I wasn't referring to Works, which is a compilation of his pre-1990 work on ECM, both as a band leader and member of others' bands, when I said that — but I could have been. Steve bequeathed it to me 18 months ago. With that stamp of approval, I don't doubt this music's charms. They're just too subtle for a dullard like me to appreciate.
So I spent this afternoon enjoying the Spiessburger pleasures of Frisell's more recent (and more melodically folky) Disfarmer and The Best of… Volume 1.
