Frisell/Krauss subliminal Pink Floyd Tribute ??


I have been enjoying listening to the Viktor Krauss album Far From Enough for the last week or so but something was triggering a electron in the memory bank that may have been lost or just possibly hadn't been excited for a while. I kept wondering, 'what does the song Grit Lap remind me of ?'

Well I listened again today, but this time with my headphones, and it finally came to me. Grit Lap is a little Frisell/Krauss tribute to Pink Floyd and David Gilmore. I can hear both Shine On You Crazy Diamond and Echo's.

Anyone else hear these references or am I just dreaming?

Mnmark, I have the East West disc too. Love the intro to Grapevine on that one.

The only time Frisell played here, that I knew of, we were going to be on vacation and I missed him.

I was listening to a Zero 7 Cd yesterday called 'When It Falls' and told my wife that tracks 6 and 7 (When It Falls and The Space Between) sound like they are doing a little bit of Echos. Now she thinks everything reminds me of Pink Floyd.

for other great albums that Frisell had a great presence on, try Chip Taylor & Carrie Rodriguez, Red Dog Tracks or Vic Chesnutt, Ghetto Bells, both from 2005. btw, i wish all live albums were as well recorded as East-West
