ALBUM REVIEW
Style: Rock/Progressive/Contemporary Jazz || USED DVD || M-/M- || NTSC/Region 0 || This 85 minute DVD is the second in a two volume anthology of concert footage of Bill Bruford's Earthworks, one of the longest lived, best travelled, and most original jazz quartets. This volume chronicles the band's progress through the 1990s, from its electronic start to its acoustic renaissance. The group was originated as a vehicle for Bruford's unusual and innovative use of electronic percussion, and did much to challenge perceptions about what a drummer should, or should not, be doing in jazz. Filmed on tour in the Germany 1991, Japan 1991 and Bulgaria in 1999.
