The best musical partners play as if there is a direct connectionbetween their brains. Steve Gunn (guitar) and John Truscinski(drums) possess that certain ESP / telepathy / majick - whatever*you* elect to call it. We've all heard folks whose operate onthese otherworldly levels - Sandy Bull and Billy Higgins, BrianEno and Robert Fripp, Alan Vega and Martin Rev, JohnColtrane and Rashied Ali - and know just how special it can bewhen folks ascend to those sorts of rarefied heights. Over thecourse of a few short years these men recorded two albums,Sand City (2010) and Ocean Parkway (2012), that capturedtheir unique and private musical language. Originally releasedas two separate smallish and now long out of print editions,those two albums are now presented within a singular gatefoldpackage. Whether you are a recent convert to Gunn's lyric andexpressive guitar styling or an old-timer who has neverinvestigated this particular corner of his discography, there is alot to be rewarded by within the confines of both Sand City andOcean Parkway.The first of the duo's two albums, Sand City, saw releasefollowing a late winter conversation between Gunn and ThreeLobed Recordings on a bench in Tompkins Square park. Oldfriends who had spent a lot of time playing together both inpublic (including within the later incarnations of raga dronestersGHQ) and private, Truscinski and Gunn were looking to laydown some of their well-honed compositions in a studio setting.Sand City is informally split into "electric" and "acoustic" sides,both reflecting the duo's well fluid and expressive style. OceanParkway followed quickly thereafter and features a collection ofelectrifying material honed while the duo was on a 2011European tour. Gunn's playing across all of this material, whilealways truly exploratory and aimed for the stars, takes on themore expansive reach typically reserved for his liveperformances when anchored by Truscinski's textured andexpressive backbeat. These two albums, while recorded atdifferent times, share such a familiar tone that they seem andfeel as if they are two sides of the same coin. Paired togetherSand City and Ocean Parkway meld into a seamless listeningexperience.
