In 2012, the Monterey jazz festival put composer/guitarist Bill Frisell in a
cabin at a remote ranch on the Big Sur coastline, and left him there to come up
with his reactions to the landscape. The project – combining the guitarist's
chamber-musical 858 Quartet and more country-tinged Beautiful Dreamers trio –
produced a festival performance and this abundantly varied 18-track studio
album. Like all Frisell's inimitable impressions of America, it's joyous,
mournful, bluesy, minimal, intricate, direct as a pop song and
impressionistically mysterious by turns. In a highly diverse tracklist, the
almost Sgt. Pepper-like Going to California rubs shoulders with The Big One's
typically Frisellian rocking-blues feel, followed by the wistful, echoing
melody of Somewhere and the Celtic-sounding Cry Alone. Eyvind Kang's quivering
viola melody and Jenny Scheinman's dark cello chords make a desolate drama out
of The Animals, and Shacked Up a wonderful bleary blues. Frisell's consistent
inventiveness is remarkable, and Big Sur sounds as close to essential as most
of his recent work.
