  • A Conversation with Bruce Hornsby by Frank Goodman (8/2006, Puremusic.Com)
    A Conversation with Bruce Hornsby by Frank Goodman (8/2006, Puremusic.com) Bruce Hornsby is certainly an artist who requires no introduction. What may require introduction about him, since he is largely viewed as a pop artist, is the depth of his musicality, and the unprecedented genre hopping he has achieved in his still blossoming career. He's played with Everyone. Or that's the way it seems on this new boxed set, Intersections 1985-2005. It's 4 CDs and a DVD, packed with unbelievable and unique hand-picked selections of a brilliant career. Of the 53 tracks, 26 of them are previously unreleased. There are many solo piano versions of well-known songs, and usually they blow the hits right off the map. Over the last ten years, Hornsby rededicated himself to mastering his instrument, and his piano playing on this new release sounds like a whole different person. Now he's cutting jazz records with Jack DeJohnette, and bluegrass albums with Ricky Skaggs. (And he is the undisputable king of the bluegrass piano, you've never heard anything like it.) Bruce put so much of himself into this box set that it makes it truly a must-have collection for lovers of his music. It's hardly a set culled by the corporation from the top shelf of the vault, not in any way. Beyond putting together fantastically interesting takes on many of his classic tunes, live and studio, Hornsby annotates his selections in a very humorous and revealing way in the accompanying booklet. (For instance, he titles a section including his three Grammy wins out of eleven nominations "A Poor Batting Average.") We have a good friend in common, the great guitarist Steve Kimock, who played a lot of dates with Bruce, and appears on disc Four on a tune called "The Chill." So that helped us get on to a special level of conversation in an interview that for us is rather short, because his hard working publicist Renee Pfefer was moving him on to his next interview, of course.
