As Tears Go By
Symbolic image – for the detailed description and condition, please read the Item Details below.
Jay Clayton's voice and John Lindberg's cello meet as equals on this 1988 duet, a conversation between two musicians working at the outer reaches of jazz expression. Clayton, whose wordless vocals and rhythmic sophistication had already carved out her singular place in the avant-garde, finds in Lindberg a partner equally uninterested in decoration—his cello sings with the same directness and emotional clarity, whether bowed or plucked. The eight pieces here drift between balladic tenderness and more abstract territory, with titles like "Waltz for Two" and "Shining Sea" suggesting an unhurried lyricism, while "Flight" and "Drifting" hint at something more ethereal. There's a chamber music sensibility woven through, but one that trusts silence and space as much as sound. This is fusion in the truest sense: two voices genuinely fusing, neither overwhelmed, both transformed by the encounter.
