A double CD of six long pieces, each thematically linked to make one long cycle which moves between completely notated and completely improvised passages, combinations of both elements, some electric Miles inspired grooves, and strange folk-like drums and drones.\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e'Martin Archer just released his most important record since 'In Stereo Gravity'. Actually, it might be the most important record of his career. 'Story Tellers' is double CD with six 20+minute suites. Themes are interconnected, each of the six musicians gets a 'persona'. The flow of the album reminds me of Wadada's Ten Freedom Summers. And there are tributes herein to Wadada, Roscoe et Muhal, so you know where the roots of it are. A fantastic listen: complex, deep, yet elemental. Applause for Martin, please.' - \u003cb\u003eFRANCOIS COUTURE\u003c\/b\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMartin Archer - The Casuist - alto, sopranino and baritone saxophones, bass clarinet, bass recorder, flute, shaker, chimes, loops \u0026amp; electronics\\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMick Somerset - The Wounded Healer - C, alto, bass, meditation, geisha and drone flutes, chalumeau and bass clarinets, shawm, shruti boxes, shaman drums, bells, rattles, gongs, trine, jews harp \\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKim Macari Stone-Lonergan - The Barbarian - trumpet \\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCorey Mwamba - The River Follower - vibraphone \\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAnton Hunter - The Rain Maker - guitar and electronics \\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePeter Fairclough - The Wayfarer's Bastard - drums and percussion\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStory Tellers #1\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStory Tellers #4\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLike It Is\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLike It Was\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe River Follower (Solo Corey Mwamba)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Casuist (Solo Martin Archer)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Casuist (Band Version)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe River Follower (Band Version)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShaman Song #1\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDedication Coda - Leo's Dream\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStory Tellers #2\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStory Tellers #5\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGo Heavy\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLike It Will Be\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Barbarian (Solo Kim Macari Stone-Lonergan)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Wayfairer's Bastard (Solo Peter Fairclough)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Wayfarer's Bastard (Band Version)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Rain Maker (Band Version)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDedication Coda - Muhal\\u2019s Way\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShaman Song #3\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStory Tellers #3\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStory Tellers #6\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLike It Is (remix)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTime Twist\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Wounded Healer (Solo Mick Somerset)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Wounded Healer (Band Version)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Barbarian (Band Version)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Rain Maker (Solo Anton Hunter)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Casuist (Exit, Pursued By Demons)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDedication Coda - Roscoe\\u2019s Blues\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55133597106561,"sku":"1130416","price":18.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/51RyufJoE3L._SL1500.jpg?v=1767068711","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/1130416","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
