5 out of 5 stars Beautiful melancholy.......2007-02-07

I first heard this album 20 years ago, and the haunting lyricism of the Quiet Departures affects me as strongly today as it did back then, half a lifetime ago. The other tracks are fine, but the first alone is well worth the price of purchase.

5 out of 5 stars Fluid Rustle - One Of My Favorites.......2004-02-19

My tastes run widly through most genres of music though they merge quite handily in one album - Fluid Rustle. This album is a tasty stew of jazz, classical, a little fusion, some new age, some upbeat, and some experimental. If you have been disappointed with new age (too boring), found Kronos Quartet a bit too edgy, like your music to give you new ideas, and want a multi-purpose album for personal listening in all sorts of situations (driving, hiking, chilling), this is it. Don't plan on putting it on as background music during a gathering because it will become the topic of conversation.

5 out of 5 stars Gorgeous, lyrical and wholly original.......2002-06-27

This is one of Weber's best, as fresh as anything he's ever done. Scored for Gary Burton on vibes and marimba, two singers (one is Norma Winstone) Bill Frisell at his most butterfly wing delicate, and Weber on that amazing acoustic necked electric bass, this record soars and glitters. High points are "Quiet Departures", really a suite of pieces that defines the sound of the CD. Contraputal melodies weave a pastoral gauze while Gary Burton's vibes solo is a miniature masterpiece. The title track has more overdubbed vocals, highly compressed to build a wall of harmony, voiced with Weber's instinctual ear for beautiful dissonance. Special mention should be made of Frisell's lovely guitar solo, a model of color and subtle volume pedal control. It just don't get any prettier...

5 out of 5 stars An ECM Classic.......2000-12-16

Eberhard Weber,with Gary Burton and two female singers, painting gorgeous soundscapes. It's music for close listening, but at the same time music for enchantment. I listened to this album once while driving through the New Hampshire mountains...and will never forget the experience.
