Mike Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 Hi guys Just realised this has been released.

Should be an ace CD. Regards Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alun Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 After reading various horror stories about the gig that's on the CD ( along with studio versions), I wasn't sure what this would be like but it has some great moments. Well worth a listen Cheers, Alun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slaphappygarry Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 Hey Alun, what do you mean by horror stories? Garry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alun Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 About Jaco's playing. There was an interview with McLaughlin where he was saying about Jaco just turning up to 11 and playing totally unrelated changes, and there wasn't much preparation for the gig. You can hear that he's being "inventive" with his choice of notes at times and there are moments of weirdness but there's also some beautiful music, particularly Continuum. Cheers, Alun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dood Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 by pure coincidence, I was listening to the trio's music at a party last night! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alun Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 I need to come to your parties - last one I went to, all I heard was dance music and Mungo Jerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZPQ Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 Ordered - this sounds really interesting. Thanks for the heads up. I don't suppose anyone has seen any video footage out there? and Alun, I've just realised who you are... ..like many people I'm eagerly waiting for news on the Panic Room album and some gigs... any news?

We started off listening to Roni Size... followed by Korn and Pantera.. we had a folk moment, with a lot of stuff I had never heard of, which was really cool.. then we all pl;ayed drinking games with a bit of Jaco & co!! long live the 'random playlist' on MP3 players!!

Alun Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 Hi John, thank for the interest.. <brief off topic tangent> As far as I know ( although I haven't seen Jon for a couple of weeks so it may be further down the line now), there was a teeny bit of tweaking left to do on the mastering and then it'll be ready for production. I did most of the bass parts 2 1/2 years ago so it'll be nice to finally have it see the light of day Not sure on gigs at the mo as everyone's commitments are a bit mad ( Gavin's on tour with Fish and Mostly autumn, Anne's really busy, I'm pretty busy) but I want to get out and play ASAP so fingers crossed </brief off topic tangent> Anyway,back on topic I think I've read that there is video footage in existence but have yet to find a copy. Hopefully someone here will have succeeded Cheers, Alun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards Mike[/quote].......Hi Y'all....Don't know if you Jaco fans are aware of a great album he was involved with during his halcyon days circa 76/77....It's by French Canadian pianist/composer Michel Columbier and features Jaco on most tracks showing off the lyrical beauty of his playing as well as the stuff we all love him for....Don't believe it was widely available, so anyone needing a copy just has to PM me...

pauljdcooper Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 have to say i love this album. took me agaes to get a copy once i heard it was out but worth it IMO. really fun music with lots of adventure in the playing.

thumb4bob Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 bought it recently myself, I still think its a bit cheeky to put an album out with four tracks of the same song, two being false starts. But I agree on the quality and its only a fiver new on amazon so you cant really complain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikey D Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 Bought the Trro album that day it came out...I love it. Continuum sounds excellent with John playing on it and Tony is brutal as always. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phaedrus Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 You can listen to sound clips here. [url="http://www.amazon.com/Trio-Doom-Live/dp/B000QEIM7S"]http://www.amazon.com/Trio-Doom-Live/dp/B000QEIM7S[/url] Personally, from these clips, IMO this is the type of music my office-sharer describes as "a group of lads cleaning their instrunemts together". And 4 songs is indeed cheeky. But live & let live, I always say. Well not always. In fact I probably say "macaroni cheese & toast, please" more often.
