Ciao Bella
   Talking Pictures
   Ron Samworth (guitar)
   Peggy Lee (cello)
   Bill Clark (trumpet)
   Dylan van der Schyff (percussion)

Talking Pictures is one of Vancouver's most evocative and atmospheric improvising ensembles.  This is their debut recording as a group but don't be concerned.  These are veteran improvisors blending talents in a rare unique way.  This unconventional group explores the realms of jazz, new music, free improv, hendrixian skronk, and art film soundtracks with equal ease and fluidity.

"Four of the more important figures from Vancouver's creative music community...You'd scarcely guess that it's the group's first disc, so vivid and fully formed are the performances." -- Mark Miller

This disc comes highly recommended.
