Adrian Belew - Side One & Side Two (2005)

Click to Listen Sample

After 8 long years Adrian Belew returns with a couple of amazing albums. On Side One he's joined on some tracks by Danny Carey and Les Claypool while he manages most of the instruments on Side Two.

The first one is a liitle bit more straight ahead Belew's style, the same we usually believed is "King Crimson influenced" (or is it the other way?). Since the opening track we get a different feeling completed with Claypool's funky bass lines. Meanwhile Side Two is more experiemtal, full of electronics and weird loops.

Two masterpieces that leaves us waiting for the upcoming Side Three.
