5 out of 5 stars Hardcore Cage.......2005-01-24

There are some wonderfully marvelous items on these Disks,more the Hardcore Cage period the Fifties streaming into the Sixties. The Fifties is when Cage discovered Zen and chance processes but also trapsed into areas of performance art, something he introduced the Europeans to, The 'Water Music' is a wonderfully inventive example. The piece is about 8 minutes and is performance art where a single pianist plays a radio(turns it off and on it is not continuous,plays abrupt chords on the keyboard(, blows three different whistles into a bowl of water, (duck, warbler, and penny whistle)then shuffles a deck of cards with the sustaine pedal down for resonance, and proceeds to deal the cards into the piano hitting the open exposed strings to marvelously ideterminate pointillistic actually pings,tings. The audience also looks on at the large seven foot score.

The 'Winter Music' as well,for one to twenty pianos I recall a story of a performance in Italy where the audience inhabits a typical European aristocratic courtyard at a music school, and the surrounding two tier buildings (in a rectangle) have pianos that creates a wonderful antiphonal effect. Here you cannot get that, the piece comes across with intense convolutions, and indeterminate-ness,the work is very difficult to listen to, each event is unto itself, not related to anything anytime, other than the here an now of what is known or was known.Zen.

TV KOLN is a graphic work where you the pianist has options to play other noises or timbres, or sounds, usually a radio is used, or the human voice.KOLN was the music center of the avant-garde in the Fifties continuing to today in many respects. You can also tap different parts of the piano box body, and it is up to the pianist performance to discovered the registers of the piano fully. "MusicWalk" is like "Water Music"only for a "travelling" pianist who must walk within the performance space to make noises elsewhere than center stage; you can use differing timbres.The pianist here uses his voice as his extended timbres.

The "Concert for Piano" and Orchestra was/is a seminal work, it is not really a "Concerto" it simply means musicians can co- inhabit a place to play together or not. The music is a virtual encylopedia of graphic notation processes, playing arpeggiations, horizontal and vertical distributions of tones, clusters, tremoli, rolls, also playing the piano's insides. The best way to play this and again only a live performance will give you the import of it, is like Bach or Xenakis, where you simply 'flip a switch', turn on the sound. playing as if there is no one else in the world. very provate. The result can be mysterious, magical,fascinating, disorienting, also boring and tedious, but mixtures of these gestures as well is part of this piece.

Much of the playing here seems much too much the same, I would think if you are going to ambitiously mount entire swabbs entire tomes of Cage's piano music that you bring a large spectrum of what the music can be and you introduce as much variety as possible.I would have liked to have more "theatre" for performance art was born here. The radio is a wonderful instrument.Also electronically altered,morphed timbre is perfectly allowable in this music,contact microphones would have brought another dimension to these works, and you then get outside the box of the stereo renderings of CD and there was none of that to be found. Here the readings are hardcore,there is no right or wrong, merely interesting and uninteresting.

          Album Description

          Having obvious roots in classic rock, driven by progressive rock and blues, and having a noticeable country influence, Drew's songs are a treat to those who appreciate well crafted, dynamic music.

          The aptly titled debut CD "No More Waiting" is a collection of striking, unique songs that work as a group, sharing their CD surface in harmony, while still maintaining individual impact.

          Flavored with refreshingly original guitar playing (including talk box), complimented by solid rhythms featuring exciting bass colorizations, and unique structure, the songs work well together, yet each has a certain unique personality.

          Album Description

          "Spring Lies Waiting" is Bill Deasy's "Astral Weeks." It's intimate, lyrical and evocative. From the opening riff of "So it Goes" (co-written with Kim Richey) to the final strum of "Still Not One of Them" Deasy explores the hidden valleys of the human heart.

          5 out of 5 stars Check This Guy Out!.......2003-03-06

          I bought this record on the recommendation (actually, insistance!) of a friend in Pittsburgh, who knew I was a major Springsteen and Jackson Browne fan. When I went to visit her last weekend, I had the good fortune to see a live show. He's got a new record coming out and he mostly did songs from that. A trip to his website re-confirmed that it's going to be less raw and bare bones acoustic than this one (he's got some of the tracks from the new record up there.) That show gave me a whole new appreciation for this record and since last weekend, this CD has not left my car. I'm telling you, if you like great singer/songwriters, this guy is the real deal. (P.S. - Thanks, Dana!)

          5 out of 5 stars Definitely Lives...........2002-04-06

          ...up to expectations. Love his voice! In a world of forgettable music and meaningless lyrics, it's great to have discovered this guy. Went on his website and it says he's working on something new. I will definitely be looking forward to the next one and would highly recommend this album!

          5 out of 5 stars new fan!.......2002-02-21

          What a great surprise to hear something so heartfelt and refreshing. Count me in as a new fan!!

          5 out of 5 stars Glad To Be Reminded.......2001-08-30

          Feels like home to a former Pittsburgher to see Bill Deasy on television! I couldn't believe my eyes at first and had to check to see if it was my favorite singer songwriter from my home town! I immediately pulled out "Spring Lies Waiting" and it's been on repeat play ever since. I hope that "good things happen" for one of the most talented singer/songwriters around, Pittsburgh or not! Just ordered "So Close To Home"...can't wait to hear it!

          5 out of 5 stars Great CD.......2001-08-29

          This CD is lyrically brilliant delivered with the cool yet passionate voice of Deasy. It is very mellow. Check out his Gathering Field CD's for the same lyrically genius and passionate singing but with more rock and energy. Latest is called So Close to Home, but Reliance and Lost in America are all awesome. Deasy is one to watch with the best stuff ahead of him.

              5 out of 5 stars A valuable collection........2003-01-12

              Admirers of this very major singer may well judge this to be the very best collection of John McCormack reissues on the market. It gathers together everything he recorded in the last twenty months of his singing life. Joining with accompanist Gerald Moore at London's Abbey Road Studios, he recorded sometimes as many as six items at a recording session.

              Gerald Moore, in his autobiography, recalled that John McComack was averse both to rehearsing and to recording more than one take of each song. Of the dozens of items here, almost all derive from a first take. Only once was there a tiny error. It occurred in the song "The Green Bushes". Listen carefully, and you will hear John McCormack begin to sing "So sweetly she sang" before correcting it, in the nick of time, to "So sweetly sang she". There was never a chance to do another take, but fortunately the item was eventually issued after McCormack's death. Indeed, there are many items here that were issued posthumously, and at least six published here for the first time. A couple of duets with Maggie Teyte have had little or no circulation. One of them here sounds to be copied from a slightly faulty but perhaps only existing copy.

              In the old-fashioned, sentimental and imprecise terminology of his day, McCormack sang from his heart, and aimed to touch the hearts of his hearers. It is fortunate that sound recording caught these performances so well, before emphysema silenced McCormack forever, and it is fortunate that Pavilion Records and supervisor Brian Fawcett-Johnston make them available today.

              4 out of 5 stars A good sampling of the last days of an inimitable artist........1999-04-21

              By the time these performances were put to wax, McCormack's voice was twenty or more years past it's prime. But, unlike most classically trained singers, McCormack's vocal limitations appear to have encouraged a more musically adventurous approach to his singing. His later recordings have an immediacy and sponteneity that is absolutely unique to a singer of his era and training. His singing is, in fact, more like that of a "pop" singer, in that the voice takes a back seat to the phrasing, and ablility to convey a lyric with honest emotion instead of histrionics. The clarity of tone, and the ring of the high notes is gone in these recordings, but the "presence" of McCormack the songster is stronger than ever. The transfers are excellent, as we have come to expect from Pearl. While the fidelity is not what most expect from today's recording techniques, to my ear they are more satisfying. The voice is recorded up-front and very clearly, and we can revel in the knowledge that it was all originally recorded "honestly"; that is, without edits and without electronic alterations of any sort. McCormack was a great artist who never became boring. In this day of bellicose tenors who are content to sing the same repertoire in the same manner year after year, that is saying a lot. If McCormack's singing is new to you, do yourself a favor and get this one. Also pick up one of his youthful operatic recitals, and you will come to know just what a great performer and amazingly varied artist he was. Enjoy, for his like will probably not be heard again.
