Cosmic Engineers by The Rain Garden
A wild and amazing set of free improvised music.
Recorded at The Rain Garden's 10th birthday concert, this album finds them in an adventurous mood, blending world music, minimal music and free jazz.
1995 sees The Rain Garden augmented by a space rock electric guitarist and free jazz saxophonist. The end result is a wild surreal trip from atmospheric world music to space music to free jazz and everywhere inbetween. This concert found everyone in adventurous and experimental mood.
influences - Oregon, Alan Stivell, Terry Riley, Evan Parker, Keith Tippett, Collin Walcott
