Chris Schlarb Making The Saint Limited Special Edition White Vinyl LP
Overview:
· “‘Making The Saint’ is my third full length record. I
love small records. When I say ‘small record’, I
think of Sandy Bull’s ‘Fantasias For Guitar And
Banjo’, Bill Evans Trio recordings at the Village
Vanguard, Fripp & Eno’s ‘No Pussyfooting’ or
Thelonius Monk’s ‘Solo Monk’. Each of these
albums is simple. They’re direct. ‘Making The Saint’
is a small record too. I didn’t belabour it. The
recording and mixing came quickly. I followed my
instincts.
· “This album is also a spiritual retreat for me; a
healthy and necessary separation after so many
strong collaborations. Like so many have done
before me, I forced myself into a state of inner
solitude to find something new.” - Chris Schlarb
· “Other-worldly sounds of singular vision and
exceptional beauty.” - All About Jazz
· “Immersive… meticulous and controlled.” - New
York Times
· Available on special edition white vinyl.
· Design by Jason Munn.
