Impeccable, tasteful, and flawlessly executed, this two-CD package documents guitarist Jim Hall and bassist Ron Carter's interactions before live audiences in the mid-'80s. Previously released as single albums entitled Live at the Village West and Telephone, Telepathy gives ample evidence of the two musicians' empathy, sensitivity, and subtlety. Virtually every piece is taken at a relaxed, midtempo pace, offering the patient listener an intimate glimpse into two highly skilled craftsmen at work. Hall's rounded, bell-like tone and Carter's assured rhythms are extremely well-suited to investigate the harmonic possibilities on a variety of tunes, from "Blue Monk" and "St. Thomas" in the bebop vein to "Stardust" and "Embraceable You" on the standard side. "Two's Blues" and "Bags Groove" suggest cerebral blues, whereas "Summer Night" and "Candlelight" are given the pristine, introspective treatment at which these two are masters. Hall's inviting, accessible style has changed little over the past 40 years, and with Carter as the perfect foil, his sophisticated lyricism and deft use of chords are once again put on display. --Wally Shoup

Album Description

Live In Los Angeles captures Telepathy at their finest moment, live. Recorded around LA with the majority of the tracks coming from the 4/28/03 performance. Blending elements of Elvis Costello vocal stylings and Phish Jam Rock Telepathy's live show never fails to satisfy.

5 out of 5 stars Long Live Telepathy!.......2005-07-06

To call Telepathy just a Jam Band is an understatement. They are one the most remarkable groups I've ever had the pleasure to hear.

Todd's electic guitar voice is fantastic, and ranks with Trey Anastasio and Eric Clapton. Aron's keys give the group an almost trancendent tone. Kevin's must have to replace his drum heads after every show, becuase he just doesnt stop! Isaac's bass ranges from subtle to outright ass-kickin.

If you want to know what these guys are about, my advice is to give Elevate a GOOD listen. You can download it off of eMusic or Napster. If you didn't feel like about 10,000 Volts passed though you, this is proably not the band for you.
