It seemed to owe more to the music being made by Miles Davis, Weather Report and Tony Williams' Lifetime in the USA or Ian Carr's Nucleus and Soft Machine in the UK than it did to the often abstract, free but determinedly acoustic music that Surman had pioneered up to that point. Hindsight tells another story. Morning Glory stands as both a consolidation of his work to date and, like the solo Westering Home (also re-issued by Fledg'ling this month), it offers a signpost for his work in subsequent years.\u003c\/p\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eSurman chose his partners for the recording very carefully, drawing from his friends and trusted collaborators. In particular, Terje Rypdal on electric guitar and John Taylor on both acoustic and electric pianos allows for an expanded musical palette. The rhythm section of Malcolm Griffiths on trombone, Chris Laurence on bass and John Marshall's chattering drums lay down a remarkably elastic rhythmic counterpoint. All of these musical signatures would become even more evident in his later recordings for ECM.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCloudless Sky\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIron Man\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNorwegian Steel - Septimus\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHinc Illae Lacrimae (Hence These Tears) - For Us All\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55765001273729,"sku":"566548","price":13.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/41hTn1MHhWL._SL1500.jpg?v=1780599428","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/566548","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
