Stackpole
Editorial Reviews
Earshot Jazz, February 2001
...a truly remarkable document of the fruition of post-free jazz in Seattle... a signal event in Seattle music.
Product Description
Stackpole is an incendiary free-jazz quartet featuring four formidable Seattle-based improvisers: guitarist Dennis Rea (LAND, Axolotl), alto saxophonist Wally Shoup (Project W, Thurston Moore), Northwest drum legend Gregg Keplinger, and acoustic bass virtuoso Geoff Harper. Stackpole's totally improvised music-in-the-moment ranges from eerie, hovering sonorities to hurtling freebop to hurricane-force sonic gales - an invigorating and truly unclassifiable alloy of jazz energy, top-notch
musicianship, and startling sounds. The group's remarkable debut CD stands as a landmark of Pacific Northwest improvised music.
