Hemispheres, released on the innovative, fan-supported ArtistShare label, is
really two albums. One is a set of diverse duets by the master guitarists; the
other is a swinging quartet set with bassist Scott Colley and drummer Joey
Baron. Hall - who played with Sonny Rollins and Bill Evans, among others, and
helped invent folk-jazz on Jimmy Guiffre's The Train and the River - is
possibly the most influential jazz guitarist of the pre-Hendrix era. Frisell is
the post-rock, post-avant-garde maestro with a penchant for American roots
music (as revealed in the Nonesuch compilation reviewed here last week). The
quartet tracks, recorded at New York's Sear Sound, are full of surprise and
delight, as Hall and Frisell spar good-humouredly on standards such as
Sonnymoon for Two and My Funny Valentine. In duo, they can tackle anything: the
pulsing soundscape of the 15-minute Migration, a funky Bags Groove, and an
eerie take on Dylan's Masters of War.
