New Directions for guitars, piano, electronics and percussion, Blue Light Vista is modern Chamber-Jazz, transcending Rock, Classical and Electronica boundaries, emphasizing elegant and dissonant harmonic detail. Crisply nuanced nylon-string guitars, acoustic piano, electronic and sampled instruments and backgrounds characterize the soundscapes. Acoustic bass anchoring the low frequencies, with refined melodic electric guitar narrative above. A unique, appealing production for the progressive listener, Rick's 4th album is his 2nd as a leader (SAWS, Bamboo Flutes) and has him performing most of the instruments using the newest computer technology, with added analog warmth in the recording. Audiophile Tube-Mastered, with JVC K2 disc cutting.
