David Torn - new album 5/5

[Dave (in MA)]

I lost track of where I read about it (FB probably), but David Torn's new solo album (solo as in he plays everything) is coming on on ECM on 5/5.

Thanks! "Only Sky" might sound like this:



You were right about the FB, I guess: https://www.facebook.com/splattercell

Torn = autobuy. One of my absolute favorite guitar players.

That's funny, on my computer your link doesn't work at the moment, while "mine" does...

B.t.w. I loved that old Splattercell-site on which fans could add albums to Torn's discography. Too bad that one's gone.

Your link now works for me. Mine still does. The splattercell is a community page, while the david.torn.9 one is his personal FB page, and last week he put up an announcement of some tour dates.

Somebody needs to explain his guitar to me

Oké, thanks for the info. I'm not a facebooker, but sometimes you have to use them for information, especially because his own website isn't up to date.

I used to collect as much as Torn as I could get, so my collection has albums featuring his guitar playing (or in some cases his samples and production) from:

Nicola Alesini & Pier Luigi Andreoni, Kevin Bartlett, Kevin Bartlett e.o. (Aural Gratification V. 1), Jeff Beck, Bon, David Bowie, Jack Bruce, Bill Bruford, Dark, David Torn, Robby Aceto, Matte Henderson, Mark Isham, David Sylvian, Mick Karn, Kaki King, David Torn/Mick Karn/Terry Bozzio, Jansen / Barbieri / Karn, Steve Jansen And Richard Barbieri, Manu Katché, Lonely Universe, Wes Martin, Various (CMP-sampler) / (Jimi Hendrix-tribute DVD), Gongzilla, Bebo Baldan, Andy Rinehart, Bill Bruford and Tony Levin, Brian Gingrich, Levin Torn White, Donna Lewis, Caryn Lin, Stefano Panunzi, Happy Rhodes, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Douglas September, Splattercell (+Remix), Laurie Anderson, Tony Levin, McKinley, Cliff Martinez, Meshell Ndegéocello, Michael Shrieve, Michael Shrieve/Steve Roach, Kit Watkins, Michael Whalen

There's also a bunch of stuff out there under Prezens (an ECM album and lots of stuff on Dime and Youtube) and Sun of Goldfinger (Dime/Youtube), but they're very far afield from his soundtrack and pop work, if that's what you're looking for.

EDIT:
He just put up an unreleased Splattercell track today.
