Description
In the words of Option, 'Curlew is the best and most obstinately committed band to emerge from New York's Knitting Factory-based alternative music scene...'. Curlew was formed in 1979 by George Cartwright, the group's leader, saxophonist, and main composer. Cartwright's compositions are at once direct and mysterious, possessing a clarity and focus that show both Ellington and Ornette assimilated in a most unique way. Backed by the hard-rocking unit of Chris Parker-electric keyboards and piano, Dean Granros-guitar, Fred Chalenor-bass and Bruce Golden-drums, Curlew somehow manage to combine r’n’b swagger and groove with free jazz and wild soloing into a whole that is immediately identifiable as nothing other than 'Curlew'! 'As a unit Curlew is focused and structured...(they are) a finely tuned machine with a sparkling identity.'-All About Jazz. Curlew are well known and well respected for almost 25 years of exciting work. Mercury is their 10th release; may they rock for another 25!
