SKU
19-FES 4002
"After the accolades...in support of last years Addition By Subtraction, the trio of Scott McGill (guitar), Michael Manring (bass) and Vic Stevens (drums) made plans to quickly record their follow up. A six day jam session resulted in Controlled By Radar, a 2 CD set that explores the electric and acoustic sides of the trio. The resulting material spans the heavy electric jazz rock of Mahavishnu Orchestra and Brand X to the acoustic world fusion of Shakti. All three musicians have achieved acclaim as virtuosos of their respective instruments. In a short period of time Scott McGill and Vic Stevens have received quite a bit of press and notoriety for their past recordings with the bands Finneus Gauge and Gongzilla, as well as their own solo releases. Grammy nominated bassist Michael Manring has received acclaim for his solo recordings on the Windham Hill label as well as for his work with guitarist Michael Hedges. Michael has won Bass Player magazine's prestigious "Bassist Of The Year" award. The album was recorded on a 24 bit/96khz recording system with minimal overdubs. Noted producer/engineer Neil Kernon created an outstanding sonic blockbuster that will appeal to the audiophile community. The package is rounded out by incredible artwork by noted underground "lowbrow" artist Glenn Barr."
