Silver Spines

Silver Spines is a solo album by Rob Mazurek that was released on the Delmark label in 2002.

[1][2][3] In his review for AllMusic, Thom Jurek states: "Working closely with engineer Casey Rice, Mazurek offers 18 compositions of elaborately layered melody, edgeless dissonance, found and electronic sound, manipulated in the studio and reshaped into small but gorgeous small universes of texture, lyricism, impression, and ghostly presences.

[4] On All About Jazz Mark F. Turner said: "As an improviser the overall concept works within the framework of the artist's vision, but the big picture may be elusive to listeners.

Many of the selections would make great samples themselves for material that could be used in other film or sound recordings.

The result, however, is a sound collage whose sum is no greater than its individual parts".
