Bill Bruford's Earthworks - Stamping Ground (live) -- Bill Bruford Productions Shopping Cart
Recorded live at the Bottom Line, New York, New York on March 14 & 15, 1992.
Earthworks, born 1987, was designed from the start to ruffle feathers. Featuring the "taboo" electronic drums, rock technology, and the jazz sensibilities of a new group of fresh players from the anarchic London jazz scene of the eighties, it was bound to make heads turn. Earthworks Edition 1 featured horn players Django Bates and Iain Ballamy alongside upright bassist Mick Hutton, subsequently replaced by Tim Harries. The acoustic front line of Bates, Ballamy and Hutton was a strong and powerful contrast to the electronic percussion supplied by Bruford, and the band received many international critical plaudits: "Fine groovemanship and advancing techniques on tuned electronic percussion" Downbeat 1994's "Stamping Ground", recorded live in the U.S. allowed the band to present older material in the fresher live format, and contains the key tracks "Emotional Shirt" and "It Needn't End In Tears". This recording of "Stamping Ground-Live" has been re-mastered and includes one bonus track: "Hotel Splendour".
