1 out of 5 stars CRAP!.......2004-07-03

Can't imagine what drugs Bill was on when he compiled this Album. One star is too many! "Tone" & "Music I Heard" are without a doubt the worst part, but the whole thing stinks! The title tune is bearable. What was he thinking?

5 out of 5 stars a true gem.......2001-12-14

this cd was my introduction to bill frisell when it was released back in the 80s. rambler still stands as one cd i would take with me if moving to a desert island... it holds up better to repeated listening than almost any other recording due to its haunting melodies and deeply textured atmospheres. imagine two jazz trios performing on stage at the same time - one with guitar, bass and drums - a second trio with tuba, trumpet and drums. now imagine them sharing the same drummer and sounding totally comfortable with each other. that's rambler!

5 out of 5 stars A nice surprise from 1984.......1999-12-21

I avoided this cd despite it's great reviews because I always like Frisell's later works from the early '90's. I was wrong. This is a strong as some of his best recordings today. If you are a Frisell fan and haven't heard this cd, you will be pleasantly surprised. It is on par with "Quartet", another great Frisell album.
