Distant Hills
1979 Mobile Fidelity Pressing Reissue. Clean Vinyl, Jacket Has Splitting At Center Of Top Seam And Left Corner. "Distant Hills, Oregon's 1973 Follow-Up To Music From Another Present Era, Is As Eclectic, Genre-Bending, And Pleasurable As Its Predecessor. The Unique Talents Of Multi-Instrumentalists Collin Walcott, Glen Moore, Ralph Towner, And Paul McCandless Work Together In A Fashion That Recalls The Collective Precision Of 20th-Century Classical Chamber Music, Yet With The Range And Improvisatory Flair Of Jazz. Like Most Of Oregon's Output, Distant Hills Is Marked By Forays Into Trans-Global Sounds. The Sitar-Fueled "Dark Spirit," For Example, Conjures Uneasy, Snake-Charmer Dreams, And The Bongos-And-Violin Duet Of "Mi Chinita Suite" Sounds Like An Avant-Garde Recital In The Amazon. The High, Reedy Keen Of "Confession" And The Dramatic Shape-Shifting Of "Canyon Song" Testify To The Fact That Although Oregon's Music Is Quite Accessible, At Its Root It Is Dedicated To Vital Experimentation." All Music Guide Review. Sleeve wear on top and corners.
