About This Item
It's been 15 years since Leo Records discovered Joe Maneri, this Inchsixty-seven year old geniusInch (Paul Bley). This recording went into production before the legendary musician died on August 24, 2009 at the age of 82. Although this album has a feeling of taking stock on a musical relationship of 20 years, it also looks boldly forward, both multi-talented artists sounding eager to explore new grounds. Joe Maneri doesn't play the piano here, he sticks to his reeds; and Masashi Harada doesn't play drums. He sticks to piano and flute. Album Tracks 1. Threads Melted 2. Point Contact 3. Pinerskol 4.
