nsp, the Amazon guy struck again and I got my first Haden-Rubalcaba
CD today . "Tokyo Adagio" .
He and Haden don’t play like one , they are one .
The love between them is palpable , perhaps intensified by Haden being so sick . Most of the music is slow tempo, not that it matters with Gonzalo as
he invented the continual variable transmission .
Nothing there but the music floating in the air with reference to nothing but itself . No place, no time, no person . Absolute perfection .If I was allowed one question to Rubalcaba it would be " Are you a student of Zen " ? Yes or no I would have my answer to all my other questions .
On a one to ten scale this CD is 117 aka trip to Infinity .
