Coward
Wilco guitarist Nels Cline, recently named a "Guitar God" by Rolling Stone, presents a brilliant solo CD on which he plays all the instruments. Covering an extraordinarily broad range of musical styles, this CD has a luscious acoustic feel, yet features a wide array of Nels' wild electronic sounds. The title Coward is misleading as this intensely personal album exhibits a fearless musicianship and a willingness to take musical and emotional risks. Coward blends improvisation and composition with a huge and constantly changing sonic palette. Coward is a musical tour de force.
