About this product
In his first solo piano for Whirlwind - 'Nation Divided' - George Colligan takes a lead from Duke Ellington's quoted notion that Inchthis is not piano. This is dreamingInch. The Portland-based pianist and multi-instrumentalist is known for numerous sideman appearances on the bandstand with names such as Jack DeJohnette, Larry Grenadier, Don Byron, Cassandra Wilson, and can be found on over a hundred album recordings (including 2017's 'More Powerful' - WR4708). But, as he elucidates, this is different InchAfter a lot of trio and ensemble records, I wanted to get back to the piano to clear the air and represent my thoughts again in solitude. The whole session was captured in a single day by respected pianist David Goldblatt in his basement studioInch. Finding a correlation between the written and the spontaneous, some of Colligan's pieces are fully improvised, others through-composed, or they combine elements of both. InchI love Ellington's idea that it doesn't matter what it is - it's just dreamingInch, he explains. I like to let things happen, but on 'the road less travelled' rather than the familiar; and in musical conversations with myself, I can take as many risks as I wish. A recurrent restlessness in Colligan's thirteen originals is validated by provocatively-named title track 'Nation Divided', it's two different keys and motifs agitatedly attempting to link up but never quite making it.Wounds Of Another Time / Closure / Between Two Worlds / Street Fight / Blues For Charleston / Nights Of Passion / The Strength To Move On / Nation Divided / Prelude / If That's All There Is To Say / Cognac Logic / Sentimental Foolishness / Saddest Of All Keys

Boxed set containing deluxe CD and double colored vinyl LP pressing. 2017 , the 14th studio album from the Irish quartet. Songs of Experience was produced by Jacknife Lee and Ryan Tedder with Steve Lillywhite, Andy Barlow, and Jolyon Thomas. The album is intended to be a companion piece to U2's previous record, Songs of Innocence (2014). Whereas it's predecessor explored the group members' adolescence in Ireland in the 1970s, Songs of Experience thematically is a collection of letters written by lead vocalist Bono to people and places closest to his heart. The personal nature of the lyrics reflects a brush with mortality that he had during the album's recording. Includes the single You're the Best Thing About Me.
