Bill would subsequently go on to form the band Bruford and record two further studio albums and a live album before returning to King Crimson in the early eighties. Following a number three studio albums with King Crimson the band decided to take a hiatus and around late 1986 early 1987 Bill decided to form the band Earthworks. The band would be something different in jazz circles however as it would feature electronic drums rather than the traditional acoustic set of drums normally found in a jazz band. Earthworks Mark 1 also featured horn players Django Bates and Iain Ballamy alongside upright bassist Mick Hutton who was subsequently replaced by Tim Harries.<BR><BR>The contrast between the acoustic front line of Bates, Ballamy and Hutton was a strong and powerful contrast to the electronic percussion supplied by Bill Bruford and the band received many critical plaudits.<BR><BR>Disc B<BR>BILL BRUFORD'S EARTHWORKS - DIG<BR><BR>TRACKLIST:<BR>1.
