PROJEKCT TWO: SPACE GROOVE

"ProjeKct Two - Space Goove" quite simply, marvelous! The music is edited improvisation. This collection is some of the best avant-garde jazz-rock around. The whole theme here has to do with impressions of outer space; however, that's as far as a description can go, this CD set defies description. Listening to this music brings back memories of how exciting it was to explore for the first time the ground breaking work of the great Sun Ra and his Arkestra. Fripp, Gunn, and Belews "ProjeKct Two - Space Goove" is definitely far ahead of it's time. There is nothing in the KC studio album list to compare this to. A real treat, highly recommended.

Belew's role, as he admits in interviews, is to serve as a palette for Fripp and Gunn to really explore their limits; yet AB is a very creative drummer and effects technician in his own right. There is no need to make comparisons between Belews work on the V-drums and the great KC percussionists; the point here is that listeners have an opportunity to listen to the dynamics grow and evolve with a new drumming perspective added to the works.
