"
The Mommy Row
is guitarist Philip Gayle's monstrous, magma opus; the biggest, jaw-popping swallow one can now take in the upper/outer echelon of free thinking acoustic voyagers. Recorded in pristine audiophile splendor, the NYC-via-Houston-based Gayle multi-tracked himself in duo, trio, hell -- sextet catacombs of 12-string guitar, aluminum egg bar, prepared toy piano, baritone ukulele, hand held cymbals, classical guitar, gongs plus an isle more of stringed wood and tempered metals. Orbiting an overtly damaged sphere risen from Derek Bailey, Sun City Girls, Thelonius Monk, Christopher Tree, Harry Bertoia, and years of bedroom perfection, these pieces owe most to the moment of recording. Gayle's style remains totally unique, crossing itself with Oriental motifs, classical, humor, flamenco and free improv leanings."

"The second album from this Houston-based guitarist (the self-released
Keguribap
was the first) is a jaw-dropping collection of solo acoustic improvisations, displaying not only striking innovative technique but also a playfulness that can be sorely lacking in much improvisational music. Resonant, often lyrical, guitar passages intertwine with cello, mandolin, acoustic bass, water phone and rolling pin. As with Gayle's debut, haunting Asian motifs also periodically surface."

GAYLE
Experimental solo guitar improv from Texas. Utilizing oddly-stringed acoustic guitars, plus a brush, wobbleboard, water bottles, banjo and classical guitar this mixes layers of plink-plonk riffs, bedroom-fidelity atmospherics and a gruff, percussive-oriented feel to very interesting effect.
