She’s an awesome person & filmmaker. When I found out her partner was Jeff, I was like “Holy sh****t!” lol

  • @wangba
    @wangba 2 года назад +4

    I love he gave the Elements LP love and captured both what's good and bad about that record in a few sentences. Fronted by Pat Metheny Group alumni Egan and Gottlieb. "Forward Motion" was mostly DOA commercially; it has that Metheny sheen but not the pop sensibility. It's usually found in dollar bins, often unopened. But, what's interesting are the odd electronic timbers and atmospherics.
