Bill Bruford Earth Works Bill Bruford/MA,USA 1990

This is a rare live recording by Bill Bruford, a genius drummer who has played in important bands in the history of progressive rock, including Yes, King Crimson, Genesis, and UK. It is an audience recording, but you would mistake it for a soundboard until you heard the applause between songs. It is more of a jazz approach than progressive rock. This is a title that I would like to challenge not only progressive rock fans but also jazz fans.
