FEATURES FOR THE WEEK

Monday 10/13/03
ADRIAN LEGG: RIPPED, RIGGED & ROOTS

Adrian Legg is truly a one of a kind guitarist. Possessed of a formidable finger picking style, his music has roots deep in English and American folk tradition, especially American banjo picking. But Legg is no traditionalist. His roots are ripped from the ground, played on a custom designed electric guitar, channeled through electronic enhancements and spun through some of the most gorgeously twisted melodies this side of a swamp vine. Legg talks about his techniques, which includes his pitch-bending tuning pegs and his idiosyncratic approach to the guitar.

ECHOES OCTOBER CD OF THE MONTH
BRIDGES: THE ECHOES LIVING ROOM CONCERTS VOLUME 9

We unveil our newest living room concert disc, Bridges: the Echoes Living Room Concerts Volume 9. Recorded in living rooms from London to San Francisco, Bridges captures the essence of Echoes with live performances that begin in the acoustic guitar of Pat Metheny and end in the electronic spacescapes of Redshift. In between, we cross bridges of time, space and culture

DAVID BORDEN: THE MOOG OF MOTHER MALLARD'S PORTABLE MASTERPIECE COMPANY

In the early 1960s, no one was touring and playing Moog synthesizers live. But David Borden put together a synthesizer trio to perform his intricate, minimalist inspired contrapuntal designs. They were called Mother Mallard's Portable Masterpiece Company and they were swapping patchcords and turning knobs a couple of years before Tangerine Dream or Kraftwerk got their first synthesizers. David Borden is still composing, recording and performing live. We talk to him about the early days of Moog performance and his latest directions.
