Robert Quine solo

Two more Robert Quine records. The first is a collaboration with Ikue Mori, a well-known drummer from the NY "downtown jazz" scene, formerly with DNA, John Zorn etc., and Marc Ribot, who needs no introduction. A dreamy, atmospheric record; Ikue Mori mans the drum machines while the guitarists pass melodies and textures to each other.

Another Quine recording with drummer Fred Maher, who played on the second Voidoids album and is also known from his work with Laswell (Material, Massacre) and Lou Reed. Excellent instrumental guitar music, very stripped-down sound.

    I really appreciate all these albums with Quine. I used to listen to "Basic" all the time in the mid-80s, then lent it to a friend who never returned it... so it's great to have it back in the collection. Those two studio albums with Lou Reed were classic.

    It slipped through the cracks... I recently did another batch of reups and realized I never got to this one.

    Thank you for the re-up! I love Quine's playing on the early Material records.

    Just wondering if you ever got hold of the final soundtrack recordings that Quine ever made? Would be really intrigued to hear them!

      I imagine I would've saved them at the time but I don't know where they would be
