Album Info

Release Date: 1995

Label: Tzadik

Recorded March 19, 1995 at Shelly Palmer Studio, NYC.
Mastered at Foothill Digital.

On Étude #8, Ribot plays a six-note melody while dragging a violin bow across the strings.
On #14, he plays a few random notes for thirty seconds.
On #16, he knocks on the body and plays a few bent notes.
On #21, he sounds like he's pulling the guitar apart, string by string.
On #23, the acoustic guitar becomes electric — and it sounds like a power drill.
(The drill sound returns on #27, a very violent track.)
On #32, he plays different musical styles — funk, surf, and rock and roll.
