80年代から90年代に掛けて奇妙なカントリー、フォークミュージック、そしてジャズ、オリジナル曲を大量の自主制作カセットにて残した奇才演奏家ユージン・チャドボーン。本作もオリジナルは自主制作で発表、その後88年にNo Prestige Recordsからオフィシャルでカセット再発された、1977年クリスマスにセロニアス・モンク、チャーリー・パーカー、ジョン・コルトレーン、オーネット・コールマンのカバー、そして自作曲を詰め込んだ面白録音集[The Lost Eddie Chatterbox Session]。セピア調の世界観が心地良いながらもどこかヘロヘロ且つオブスキュア、アヴァン寄りな演奏形態がまさにマニア好みといった痛快な一枚。4曲のボーナスを追加。Corbett vs. Dempseyの仕事は本当に素晴らしい。

Dateline: Christmas Day, 1977, San Francisco. On an ailing quarter-track tape deck, in a marathon session, Eugene Chadbourne recorded a series of slide guitar solos playing compositions by the likes of Thelonious Monk, Charlie Parker, John Coltrane, and Ornette Coleman, along with a few standards and originals. Although the recording quality was imperfect, the playing was brilliant – enough so that Chadbourne was eventually convinced, a decade later, to issue it as a cassette tape, which he sold at concerts. Long precursing the slash-and-burn-and-reinvent approach to jazz songbooks now familiar from groups like News From Lulu, Chadbourne leapt into each short track with giddy abandon, introducing the piece with a nerdy spoken credit line, then ripping and tearing at it adoringly, his improvisations forcing a new view of the familiar melodies. Anyone familiar with Chadbourne’s wonderful duets with Frank Lowe on Don’t Punk Out!, waxed in the same period, has a general sense of his modus, but the complete commitment he gave to the project on The Lost Eddie Chatterbox Session makes it a special and wholly unique item in the manic master’s chronicles. On this special CD reissue, the tracks have been tenderly but respectfully restored, eliminating some of the most distracting audio flaws but leaving the inconceivable artistry intact. Four never-released tracks have been added to the jam-packed program, as well as the original cover photo and Chadbourne’s unreadable track listing, which is carefully reproduced on the interior.
