I semi-acustici Balancing Act, un incrocio fra i CSN&Y piu` sognanti e i
Violent Femmes piu` stralunati, sono un ensemble folk di Los Angeles formato
dai cantautori poli-strumentisti Jeff Davis e Steve Wagner, che pennellano
acquarelli surreali come Wonderful World Tonight (1986),
Red Umbrella (1987), Kicking Clouds Across The Sky (1987),
Generator (1988) e
Fishing In Your Eyes (1988), in cui fondono avant-jazz e armonie vocali
folk.
Three Squares And A Roof (july 1987 - Primitive Man, 1987) e` forse l'album
migliore, seguito da Curtains (1988).
Jeff Davis later formed Niagara, which released 01 (Bliss, 1998), a mostly overlooked album that was instead catchier than anything the Balancing Act did, and 02 (2000). |
