BRÖTZMANN/JACKSON/LASWELL/SHARROCK
LAST EXIT KÖLN (1986) (ATAVISTIC)
Finally after more than an a decade, this seminal lexicon of lightning is again available for public consumption.
A veritable Murderer's Row of sonic titans- each at full strength: Brötzmann on tenor; Sharrock on guitar; Laswell on 6- string bass; Jackson on drums.
This lineup speaks for itself. "You know, I really feel the Exit quartet is getting stronger all the time...
we've been through our 'power playing' period. I don't want to be typecast as just a 'blaster'.
Now the shit is really wide open- it can go anywhere. The interaction is getting to be very sensitive- though I'm sure there'll always be some good old passion and violence.
But there's a lot of potential still to be explored, and i hope we get the chance to explore it." -Peter Brötzmann, 1990
