About this product

Digitally remastered and expanded edition includes two bonus tracks. With Earthworks second album, Dig?, Bill Bruford began to be accepted, on a broader level, as a jazz drummer, even though his roots in the style go right back to his formative years. Bruford had found players who were clearly familiar with the jazz tradition, even as they pursued ways to break it down and reconstruct it in new and unusual ways. Earthworks' second and best features young Turks Ballamy and Bates and a new bassist, Tim Harries, who replaces Mick Hutton. Tunes are by everybody and Tony Hatch (the latter a mutant arrangement of Downtown by Bates which will not be entering the top 40). This edition has two bonus tracks in addition - Emotional Shirt and Pigalle - culled from the band's live appearances. This album has been out of print for some time. This re- is on Bruford's own Summerfold Records and was overseen personally by him.

Bruford,Bill / Earthworks - Stamping Ground   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Digitally remastered edition. Live, one-take, no overdubs, and very real document of Bill Bruford's Earthworks from 1992. Recorded in America and partly in England on tour, Stamping Ground (originally released in 1994) was the final Earthworks album to feature Django Bates, Iain Ballamy and Tim Harries. Out of print for some time, this reissue is on Bruford's own Summerfold Records and was overseen personally by him. Fans suggest this may be the Earthworks album to get.

Bruford,Bill / Earthworks - All Heaven Broke Loose   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Reissue of long out-of-print album by drummer Bill Bruford's Earthworks • Arguably Earthworks Mark I's most fullyrealised studio , even as it moves towards a more abstract aesthetic. • Includes live performances of the African-influenced 'Libreville' and the more atmospheric 'Pilgrim's Way', both originally released on 'Dig?', demonstrating how Earthworks was able to rework and open up the material in performance.
