The New Tony Williams Lifetime

[mikeweil]

This has just been reissued on CD, by the British dependency of SONY, with two bonus tracks.

I liked this album back then, and it still sounds good to these ears. Some prototype fusion.

Anyone else here like it?

What are the bonus cuts?

Bertrand.

I like it. The followup sucked, but this one was cool.

[PHILLYQ]

Some smokin' Holdsworth, also.

[Shawn]

I LOVE this record...agree with Jim that the followup wasn't so hot...but this sucker JAMS! My favorite cut is the song "Fred". What a fantastic groove.

Really enjoyed the 'Spectrum' 2CD anthology put out on Verve so will have a punt on this one next time I see a cheap copy in the shops.

Tracks:

1. Snake Oil (Tony Newton)

2. Fred (Allan Holdsworth)

3. Proto-Cosmos (Allan Pasqua)

4. Red Alert (Tony Newton)

5. Wildlife (Tony Williams)

6. Mr. Spock (Allan Holdsworth)

Bonus tracks:

7. Celebration (?)

8. Letsby (Allan Holdsworth)

Letsby sounds much like a different version of Mr. Spock.

This is out since April 2004, says Amazon.UK. It sells at midprice - I paid EUR 8,49 for it.
