R_of_G,
You might want to check out the new Robby Kreiger solo album that is Coltrane and Mile Davis inspired, Singularity. The samples sound promising.
Robby is interviewed in an October "Guitar World" article.

I actually just read your post in the "Influential Guitar Players" thread and it piqued my interest so I am about to check it out.

I'm a bit wary because frankly, I don't really like Krieger that much (can't stand the Doors) but I won't write him off entirely, and the Trane/Miles thing is enough to get me to give the samples a listen.

Thanks for the heads-up. :)
 
Bill Frisell - East West. Also Terminator Salvation - loads of huge robots whaling on people, what's not to like?

:applause

Excellent live Frisell release with two different trios. The Further East/Further West releases (which he did through his website) are also fantastic.

NP: Still the new Ribot and likely will be stuck on that one for awhile. Been waiting since Saints (2001) for another entirely solo Ribot affair and this one delivers exactly what I was hoping for.

^^ Good choice Steve. :)

NP:

Thanks, I think it is always a good choice. I had tended to hang more with Coltrane and "My Favorite Things" and "Impressions", but I am glad I got directed a bit further back to hear Miles, along with Coltane and Cannonball Adderly. The iTunes podcasts discussing the album I have been listening too are great too. (Dr. Gordon Vernick, Georgia State U, Jazz Insights).

I will join you in some Lennon sometime later, but I am wrapped up in this right now.

+1 on Ribot - I liked him ever since the stuff he did with Tom Waits

An idea for the next Terminator film - huge Ribots whaling on people. Think I need a lie down.
