DESCRIPTION:
"Youth" from Bill Bruford's Earthworks from the DVD Anthology Vol 1. available spring 2007 from www.voiceprint.co.uk
Bill Bruford's Earthworks, a uniquely British institution, has been turning heads on the international jazz scene now for 20 years. The band has consistently offered a platform to the best and brightest young players, presided over by a leader with unparalleled experience as a drummer, composer, and leader.This two-volume Video Anthology splits the band's career to date into two separate decades, roughly marking its transition from an electronic to an acoustic outfit. Volume 1 represents the work of the later and current "acoustic" editions of the band in the 2000s, and Volume 2 mostly represents the "electronic" origins of the group in the 1990s. Both volumes come with Dave McKean artwork and a 12 page booklet chronicling critical reaction at the time, and all material has been selected and supervised personally by Bill.
