Description: John Surman ‎Jack DeJohnette Amazing Adventures Of Simon Simon LP 1981 ‎ECM This is a unique and wonderful recording. I duo interplay with at time synth back drop very nice The Amazing Adventures of Simon Simon is an album by British saxophonist John Surman—featuring drummer Jack DeJohnette—recorded in January 1981 and released on ECMlater that year. The album cover was chosen by designer Storm Thorgerson as one of 100 best album covers John Surman (on baritone, soprano, bass clarinet and synthesizer) meets up with drummer Jack DeJohnette (who also plays congas and electric piano) for this typically introspective and spacy ECM set. Surman's playing (especially on baritone and bass clarinet) during nine group originals is worth hearing. The opening tracks of each side, "Nestor's Saga" and "Within The Halls of Neptune" are oddly hypnotic. thanks to the synthesizer programming. On other songs, Surman generates a bewildering array of squawks, squeals, wails, honks, and other occasionally distressing sounds from his sax. DeJohnette's percussion is inspired as always, and the interplay between the duo is empathic at times. This pressing is impressive, with an open, sparse, spacious soundstage so typical of ECM recordings.
