Transformation
Editorial Reviews
<"b00005a0m05020"> DownBeat, April 2001
Former Zappa-man pulls it off, along with some bouncy, unexpected departures in a program that leaves you guessing...quite expressive.
<"b00005a0m05019"> JazzTimes, May 2001
The opportuity to hear pianist/synthist Preston ruminate in a trio is not to be missed...fluidity with a crisp edge.
<"b00005a0m04999"> Album Description
This new CD by the Don Preston Trio features pianist Preston, bassist Joel Hamilton and drummer Alex Cline presenting inventive treatments of music by Frank Zappa, Carla Bley, John Carter, Cole Porter, and Preston himself. Transformation presents a survey Preston's multifarious career: his stint as keyboardist with Frank Zappa's Mothers Of Invention, his association with pianist-composer Carla Bley, his synthesizer work for the late distinguished composer-clarinetist John Carter as well as his own reputation as a writer of powerful though twisted music.
