Third Mind - new release from an unexpected source

[R_burke]

Dave Alvin is normally associated with blues/Americana music and if you go back far enough rockabilly (The Blasters), but his latest release is none of these. Third Mind could be considered progressive, jazz or any number of things. I like it and it's on my buy list.

Some more info about this good album (IMO):

“Using the Miles Davis technique, there were no rehearsals or written musical arrangements. Just decide on a key, start recording and see what happens,” says Dave Alvin."
