Songs by EUGENE CHADBOURNE SOLO
Intakt CD 026
'Free improvised country & western bebop'. Folk and traditional songs by Tim Buckley, Phil Ochs, Wilie Nelson, Nick Drake … which will not escape unscathed if the cover versions are compared with the originals.
The guitarist, banjo player and singer Eugene Chadbourne says: "For me playing solo is the purest form of expression. The two solo CDs Strings and Songs give a representativ cross section of my work. In a way they go to the heart of my music."
Eugene Chadbourne: "Imagine a world where Johnny Cash and Phil Ochs meet head on with Derek Bailey and you are getting close."
Eugene Chadbourne about Songs: "I like the songs, they are very honest, very emotional."
