DESCRIPTION:
Bill Bruford's Earthwork's, Stromboli Kicks from Anthology Vol 2.
available Spring 2007 from www.voiceprint.co.uk

Anthology Volume 2 -- the 1990s

This 85 minute DVD is the second in a two volume anthology of previously unreleased concert footage of Bill Bruford's Earthworks, one of the longest lived, best travelled, and most original jazz quartets. This volume chronicles the band's progress through the 1990s from its electronic start to its acoustic renaissance; volume1 does the same for the 2000s. The group was originated as a vehicle for Bruford's unusual and innovative use of electronic percussion, and did much to challenge perceptions about what a drummer should, or should not, be doing in jazz. Filmed on tour in Germany 1991, Japan 1991, and Bulgaria 1999,
Earthworks continues to offer a platform to the brightest and best young players, and has become a "potential model for the 21st century Jazz mainstream" ( Chicago Reader ).

"...represents everything fusion should have been" ( Downbeat )
