xxxii. GOODMAN, Jerry (1949- ) & HAMMER, Jan (1948- )
Steppings Tones (1974)
Goodman, violin
Hammer, keyboards, drums
(3:30)
From Like Children.
I love the basic simplicity of this tune and its internal complexity.
Tones ring out and you count in in FOUR.
Then Hammer adds a simple piano lick in 5/8.
Next, Hammer adds a drum part in 5/4, so that the 5/8 becomes 10/8.
Then Goodman enters. The thing just repeats from there, but this is gorgeous music in its complex simplicity.
