Greetings all,

I am Jeffrey Collins and I have a CD that I would like to let you know
about. It is my Guitar Sonatas Volume 1. This CD is done entirely through
improvisations on prepared guitars. And on one track there is a four guitar
improvisation recorded one guitar at a time onto four tracks (kind of like
Sonny Sharrock would do sometimes). This music is very strange and not
intended for your basic music buyer.
It is very atmospheric and at times very dissonant and sick.
I have a few audio clips in RA format and you can check them out before
you go any farther in your attempts to hear music that can help aid in those
seeking insanity.
Just go to...
http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/Stadium/1429/STRANGETONES.html
and have fun, there should be more up this weekend.
I thank you for your time an would like to let you know if you become
interested that the CD is $11.00 for America and $12.00 for the rest of the
world. E-mail me for the address.

Sincerely,
Jeffrey Collins

I have a review copy of this cd and I'd recommend it.
I thought: "Hmm... is this going to be like Derek Bailey or Fred Frith?"
I happy to report that it's much more than a celebration of influences!
JC's efforts in de-tuned and prepared guitar extend into minimalism and beyond
with his use of looping with a delay (echo). Pretty cool stuff.
