M nchner Streichtrio - Kleine Nachtmusik KV 525 / Concertone KV 190 - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Streicher Trio - Musica de Camera [COMPACT DISCS] date 09/15/1998

Prison hits the road album, riding two massive jams across altered routes of consciousness a la the allegorical and literal heavy traffic of the Brooklyn Queens Expressway, visible from the windows of the studio in which Big Rigs on the BQE was recorded! The requisite Prison gear, guitars, bass and drums plus synth & FX, coughs out exhaust flavored with Groundhogs/Velvets/Hampton's/Pink Fairies/Magic Band/Good Rats/Can. An improvised rock and roll tapestry, gas 'n guitar pedal on down to the metal.

Meyer has split the original piano part between two accordions, played here by Heidi and Uwe Steger. Their instruments are astonishingly close to the human voice, breathing, shouting, whispering, and singing. Tobias Berndt, an accomplished lied singer, takes on the baritone solo part in this recording with the choir of one of the most renowned concert halls
