DescriptionExcerpt

On Bring Yr Camera, Wayne Horvitz and his sextet “dip into blues and slide-guitar rock à la Little Feat,” said the New York Times, “along with mock-minimalist repetition, tinges of gamelan or Latin or Japanese music, and whatever else pops into mind.” The album was hailed as “fascinating” by the Times (UK), citing Horvitz’s “discreetly immaculate” keyboard playing.
