Editorial Reviews
Stephanie Sollow, Progressive World, September 1999
playful and serious, subtle and overt, warm and cool, by far one of the best things I've heard this year

Product Description
The Lonely Bears may be the best group you never heard of. Yet, the players in the band are well known within their musical domains. Each has accomplished numerous notable achievements in their respective careers. The music which they have created as The Lonely Bears is artistically innovative and stimulating to both mind and body.

Tony Coe's sax work is just amazing...his tone is beautiful, whether he is playing it cool, warm, or hot. Hugh Burns guitar lines are one moment lyrical and at another cutting, angular, raw. Terry Bozzio's drumming is quite dynamic and powerful. Tony Hymas' keyboard textures are spectacular, a balance between jazz, rock, and classical.

Album Description

The third of the Lonely Bears trilogy. This album was recorded at Acousti Studio, Paris, May 1992 and at Ardingly, Sussex, January 1994. On these two sessions Tony Hymas, Terry Bozzio, Hugh Burns and Tony Coe went into the studios to improvise around a set of compositions. Among the tunes is the 17:00 epic "Looking For Maquah" and an interpretation of "Happy Go Lucky Loco" by Duke Ellington.

Originally released on the Nato label in 1994, this release has never been issued in the United States, and has been almost impossible to get a hold of, until now.

5 out of 5 stars Terry Bozzio is left field Jazz.......2000-06-29

Terry Bozzio really pulls out the stops on this recording. From the basis of Tony Hymas compositions (with the exception of a Duke Ellington cover "Happy Go Lucky Loco"), the band improvises and creates an incredible blend of jazz, rock, classical and various world music. The playing is incredible throughout the disc. Tony Hymas (Jeff Beck) on keyboards, Tony Coe (Frank Sinatra to George Harrison) on saxes and Hugh Burns (remember Gerry Rafferty's "Baker Street"?, and Ute Lemper's incredible new album "Punishing Kiss") on guitars. The band honed their skills on two previous albums and many live dates, and it all comes colliding together on this album. This album was originally released in 1994, but never was obtainable in the USA before now. I'd love to see where the band would have gone to if they had made a fourth album together. Start with either "Lonely Bears" or "Injustice", but definitely work your way out to "The Bears Are Running".

4 out of 5 stars Lonely sounds.......2000-09-22

Terry Bozzio is of course the soul of this album, but he's not everything there is to hear, there's also great saxofone and groovy sounds: makes me feel myself a bit abanded. This is the album for a lonely man living in small village beside mountains and forest in a small cottage with hifi-stereos and electricity.

    Album Description

    The second release from Terry Bozzio, Tony Hymas, Tony Coe and Hugh Burns. Never before available in the United States, this is a highly anticipated reissue of this impossible to find album. After the group gelled so well on the first album and tour, they went back into the studio improvise around another set of Tony Hymas compositions.

      The Lonely Bears may be the best group you never heard of. Yet, the players in the band are well known within their musical domains. Each has accomplished numerous notable achievements in their respective careers. The music which they have created as The Lonely Bears is artistically innovative and stimulating to both mind and body.

      In 1990, after having recorded the Grammy Award-winning album "Guitar Shop" with Jeff Beck, drummer Terry Bozzio and keyboardist Tony Hymas met in France to jam with guitarist Hugh Burns and sax player, Tony Coe. The results were three albums of boundary stretching improvisational music which encompassed styles ranging from fusion, folk, ethnic and world beat.
