Jon Hassell

I hope people know about Jon Hassell. He has been one of the most revolutionary composers of the last 30 yrs,combining minimalism,jazz,and a strong Miles influence into his work,which invoves his most unusual trumpet technique. He completely bends the notes to a"liquid sound". worth checking out.

I have Fascinoma and love it. "Nature Boy" is one of my favorite tunes on that one. I also have "Hollow Bamboo". Good stuff.

He's been doing film scoring for a while now too.

. . . and record production.

Nice to see a well-known "unknown" name surface here. Jon's a brilliant musician and a pioneering trumpeter. Thanks, Greg.

Best,

It is a collaboration CD by Jon Hassell, Ry Cooder, and Ronu Majumdar.
