| Brian Setzer: First 'Instru-MENTAL' Album Reigning rockabilly king Brian Setzer's latest release 'Setzer Goes Instru-MENTAL!' is not only the album longtime fans have been waiting for - it's his most organic effort to date. Says Setzer of the album's auspicious inception, "The direction turned about halfway through my writing. I had never done an instrumental record, but I thought, well, now's the time." The result is a collection of six originals and five covers of bluegrass and rockabilly classics that "showcases his impressive talents and the breadth of his playing like never before" (Guitar Aficionado). "I just stay true to myself, " he continues. "All the things that I like come out in my playing ... jazz and rockabilly and rock n roll and country and that's just what comes out of my fingers. I don't know why it comes out that way, it just does." write your comments about the article :: © 2011 Jazz News :: home page |
