"Think Like the Waves" Gordon Grdina Oud & Guitar with / Gary Pea<b>rooster</b> / Paul Motian


"I wanted to bring together the oud and the guitar because I could hear the oud working so well with these two, and there�s something in the way they improvise which reminds me of the Arabic taqasim, the free-time improvised introduction to the melodic material of a piece. But I�ve tried to make the oud part of my complete musical experience, so that I can take it with me on any musical exploration without any preconceived idea about its musical role."

Gord is a good friend of mine, and an amazing musician. I was lucky to be present at this recording session; this is definitely a special recording. His other band Sangha is really great as well, with indian tabla and persian tar. Anyone in Vancouver should go check him out!
