While staying at the Glen Deven Ranch, Frisell was captivated by the beauty and grandeur of the Big Sur, California coastline which inspired him to write this transcendent new music. He is joined on the recording by the talented musicians of his Big Sur Quintet; Jenny Scheinman (violin), Eyvind Kang (viola), Hank Roberts (cello) and Rudy Royston (drums). Review: THE AMERICANA MUSIC BIBLE - Is a marsterwork of this music call Americana, a combination of country, folk, popular music and contemporary music. Frisell is one of the most influential guitarist of the last tree decades in jazz and in others musics. "Big Sur" is his best work in this Americana line. Is beautiful, full of nostalgia and incredible simple to hear.His albums more influent , until now, probable are "Have a little faith" (1993) and "Nashville"(1997) and from now this album. He create with this three records a new way to understand jazz music, flock music and country. But the influence of classic american music is hear more evident than never. From Neil Young to Aaron Copland, "Big Sur" is a magic travel full of ideas and sounds. Is a special Quartet for a special occasion. Eyvind Kang on viola, Hanks Roberts on cello, Jenny Scheinman on violin and Ruddy Royston on drums. The production of Lee Townsend is perfect. "Big Sur" is great music, great Americana music. If you like this Frisell side, you must buy now. If you did'nt please try to hear it. Is another way to feel the music. Another masterwork from Frisell. A " classic" from the first moment. Review: scenic soundtrack to coastal beauty - As the title suggests, this album is a musical tribute to that most stunning part of the California coast. Located two hours south of San Francisco, Big Sur is a fabled place of natural beauty and bohemian inspiration. Before Bill Frisell, the area attracted writers like Hunter S. Thompson, Henry Miller and Jack Kerouac. In the same vein, all of the music on this album was written at the Glen Deven Ranch in Big Sur. With titles like 'Highway 1,' 'Hawks,' and 'A Beautiful View,' the songs sonically describe the place. Musically, the band plays Americana rock that is infused with Frisell's signature blend of jazz and chamber aesthetics. 'The Big One' even employs surf music. Songs like 'Sing Together Like a Family' and 'We All Love Neil Young' express a tender sense of nostalgia. On "Big Sur," the mood is generally light. Indeed, it's been a long time since Frisell has done anything so upbeat. The Big Sur Quintet is filled with long-time Frisell veterans including Jenny Scheinman (violin), Eyvind Kang (viola), Hank Roberts (cello) and Rudy Royston (drums). Comparatively, this group's musical vision is most similar to sounds found on albums like " All We Are Saying... ," " Floratone II ," and " Disfarmer ." Thus "Big Sur" sits comfortably among Bill Frisell's more accessible projects. Highlights include 'The Music of Glen Deven Ranch,' 'The Big One,' and 'Going to California' which is actually not the Led Zeppelin tune. Filled with originality and nuance, the cerebral performance is strong. Bill Frisell has been working on this incarnation of his sound for some time. For the artist, "Big Sur" may be the most magnificent expression of this beloved time period. With Frisell as your tour guide, take a drive on Highway 1. Let Bill Frisell guide you through one of the country's most scenic areas with an equally sublime soundtrack. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00C5WR6JE | | Best Sellers Rank | #221,507 in CDs & Vinyl ( See Top 100 in CDs & Vinyl ) #25,427 in Jazz (CDs & Vinyl) #92,805 in Pop (CDs & Vinyl) | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 4.0 out of 5 stars (89) | | Date First Available | April 4, 2013 | | Item model number | 26927730 | | Label | Okeh Jazz (Srm) | | Language | English | | Manufacturer | Okeh Jazz (Srm) | | Number of discs | 1 | | Original Release Date | 2013 | | Product Dimensions | 5.67 x 4.81 x 0.39 inches; 3.52 ounces | | Run time | 1 hour and 4 minutes | ## Images ![Big Sur - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91BCGvL-VXL.jpg) ![Big Sur - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71YgerWYwBL.jpg) ![Big Sur - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81UP4D0pFmL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ THE AMERICANA MUSIC BIBLE *by M***N on July 4, 2013* Is a marsterwork of this music call Americana, a combination of country, folk, popular music and contemporary music.

I'm pleased with the service in every respect. Also, this is an excellent example of quietly advanced and incidentally exceptional music by Bill Frisell. I'm very experienced, very discriminating, and very picky about music. This is an outstanding suite of music performed by a talented, cohesive group of musicians, and they make it sound so casual.
