got to see mr frisell again last night, and no surprise - it was incredible. had to post this set today. enjoy this rip of npr’s coverage of the 2012 newport jazz festival.

Bill Frisell is a soft-spoken guy who does a lot of talking with his guitar —and its pedals and effects. So perhaps it’s appropriate that he recently issued an album called All We Are Saying, an collection of John Lennon songs. Though he’s known primarily for working with other improvisers, he’s of the Baby Boomer generation, and he doesn’t hide his love for Beatles songs away. With a band including steel guitar (Greg Leisz) and violin (Jenny Scheinman), Frisell doesn’t reinvent the wheel — but he certainly gives it a new spin.
