  1. “I thought, ‘What am I going to do? I'm almost 50 years old … I thought, ‘Maybe Starbucks? They'll probably take somebody with no experience & I can just learn how to do it.’ And that's when Jeff called it” #NelsCline #Wilco #guitarists #GuitarSky #music #MusicSky www.guitarworld.com/artists/guit...

  2. New #review today: "Here we have #TrioOfBloom, with #NelsCline (guitar), #CraigTaborn (keyboards), and #MarcusGilmore (drums). This is by far the most improvisational of the bands, as you might expect from having Cline on board, and he’s in full out-there mode for most of this album." #ExposeOnline #ExperimentalMusic #AvantJazz #PyroclasticRecords #jazz expose.org/index.php/articles/

  3. Nels Cline - Consentrik Quartet

    This starts off relatively meandering, then in the second track, The 32, a bass groove kicks in, and there's no surprise that was the single... it's interesting how much this bounces between the two modes.

    One track, Satomi, was specifically written for Deerhoof's Satomi Matsuzaki.

  4. New #review today: "#CurtisHasselbring’s latest project is dubbed the Curhachestra, and from the name you might expect a large ensemble. It is in fact only a quartet featuring #AdamMinkoff (bass), #DanRieser (drums), and #RaphaelMcGregor (lap steel guitar); there are also guests #NelsCline (guitar) and #LisaParrott (baritone sax) on one track each. Hasselbring takes advantage of the unusual lineup’s available tonalities..." #ExposeOnline #jazz expose.org/index.php/articles/

  5. Tonight: wild-eyed free form fitting the day's mood. Tim Berne in his usual spot at Lowlands, tonight with a banger of a band: Nels f'in Cline, Elias Stemeseder, and Tom f'in Rainey. Taking things very very deep at Lowlands on a snowy Thursday night. Also Bill Frisell is here and that makes me happy.

  6. Tonight: you never know what you're going to get at the Stone or how you'll get it. With Jorge Roeder and Nels Cline it was nearly everything imaginable in all the ways. Stellar two-man freeform, Nels was peak Nels, unhinged and then some, Roeder just as impressive. Flabbergasting and more. How freakin lucky I am!

  7. So awesome that there's space at this festival for a set like this in the middle of a Sunday afternoon. The live debut of Saccata Quartet, two drums, guitar, and bass. Nels Cline at his most untethered, Chris Corsano Corsano'n pretty hard, Glenn Kotche fully freeform and Darin Grey on no-rules bass. Wild shit, with some moments of serious transcendence, when it only really takes one.

  8. Tonight: higher plane freeform with four masters of their craft. Ben Goldberg with Nels f'in Cline, Trevor damn! Dunn, and Tom bleepin' Rainey. At the Stone, obviously.

  9. Rolling Stone names "top 250" guitarists of all time ~ oh my that's a lot of guitar wankage

    #MollyTuttle at 222 nice treat (although will go higher)
    #GrantGreen only 203 is a scandal
    #JerryReed 198 is practically criminal

    #NelsCline at 115 low
    #LouReed at 89 songwriting great yet too high

  10. New #review today: "#LocationLocationLocation is a jazzy guitar trio that, for me, hits a sweet spot balancing composition and improvisation on their debut, Damaged Goods. While #AnthonyPirog’s guitar is far more mangled, both electronically and harmonically, than is common in jazz, the group’s music is clearly in the vein previously mined by groups led by #RaoulBjörkenheim, #TerjeRypdal, #SonnySharrock, #NelsCline, and others." #ExposeOnline #jazz #AvantJazz #JazzRock expose.org/index.php/articles/

  11. On this day, January 4th, in 1956: Nels Cline was born in Los Angeles.

    Today's soundtrack: Nels' guitar work kills me.

    Today’s screening: “Approximately Nels Cline”

  12. Was in PA and AC NJ last week. Mostly work trip but some visiting too. A friend gave me a gift of a Nels Cline bobblehead!

    Upon arrival in Atlantic City, Nels wanted to use the sun sky ocean view from my hotel as a back drop. He proceeded to rock out.
