Open, dusty spaces are familiar images in the musical world of Steve Roach, but
he gives his favorite subject an entirely new twist on this 1998 collaboration
with Roger King. Harking back to the ghosts of the Old West, this variation
comes courtesy of the harmonica, an instrument new to Roach recordings. It is
brought to the fore here, underpinned by King on various guitars and Roach's
ever-present electronics. Roach and King drench their instruments in a healthy
dosage of reverb, occasionally letting phrases drift off entirely. This
technique imbues the music with the impression of viewing yellowed photographs
of frontiersmen in a long-forgotten family album. A suite of songs beginning
with "A Bigger Sky" and concluding with "First Sunrise" delves into a deeper
space that fans will recognize, dissolving all ties with the physical realm by
utilizing whispered voices and gradually inserting Roach's trademark rhythmic
sequences. But it is the traditional instruments that truly stand out on this
album, allowing the listener to imagine a time and place now relegated to myth.
Roach once again proves himself a restless experimenter who consistently chooses
talented collaborators who will enable him to expand both his own musical vision
and that of his listeners.
