Everything's Peachy: The Jazz Sessions Vol. 2 - Matt Berry Trio [CD]

Acid Jazz presents the second volume of their 'Jazz Sessions'series with the first album from the Matt Berry Trio, with Matt Berry joined by band members Phill Scragg and Graham Mann on `Everything's Peachy'. The album is a 12-part instrumental suite, inspired by `the Sky King' (American folk hero Richard 'Beebo' Russell), who stole a large aircraft with no flight training, performing stunts and manoeuvres, before crashing to his own demise, and takes its name from his response to air traffic control. Conveying variously the chaos, nostalgia, regret and acceptance of Russell's maiden flight, it is an open, freeform and flowing composition, drawing influence from the electronic experiments of Miles Davis and the melancholy of Satie, to create another moment of musical beauty from Matt's curious and ever-moving musical mind.
