简介:
A true master on the electric bass guitar and famous for his groundbreaking harmonic techniques, our man from Boulder, Colorado, has always been into Bcreating new sounds and for this album Think...It's All Good bass player Dean Peer (1959) put together an unusual ensemble in which equal parts of folk, funk, jazz and Indian music in an exciting amalgam using tablas and various other percussion, violin, jews' harp and harmonica. Recorded in a Mennonite church in Amsterdam, Peer teamed up with violinist Steve Trismen, percussionist Ty Burhoe and Howard Levy on harmonica, jews' harp and various types of ocarinas and even a Spa mineral water bottle. The musical ingredients reveal musical traces from all over the world, through the first impressions of freedom, funky grooves and virtuoso, sometimes electrically manipulated (violin) playing, give Think...It's all good a particularly Western, contemporary feel. After starting out on saxophone and tuba in a high school marching band, attending a Return to Forever concert at the age of fifteen got Peer hooked on the electric bass: "I was knocked out by Stanley Clarke". Over the years, Peer developed his advanced personal style that is characterized by the use of harmonic, alternate and open tunings, false harmonic, stopped notes and bends, chords and root notes. Often all at once. This way his playing got layered: lots of -often subtle- things were going on simultaneously and according to Peer, this allows the listener to get involved on any level they want. His earlier albums Ucross and Travelogue also explored these concepts fully. To help other bassists understand his innovative use of harmonic, in 1988 Peer published a book on the subject which got rave reviews in leading magazines such as "Guitar World' and "Guitar player'. A seamless melding of dynamic fundamentals intertwined with the subtle overtones of each individual voice, without distortions of time or space. Few recordings have ever achieved such a sonically holistic effect. Fewer still with as diverse an array of musical elements. The music seems almost to bypass the senses, leaving an impression that remains in the mind long after the disc has ended.
