Description

Distant Borders Revisited (2006) is a provocative and intoxicating mixture of world-beat grooves and contemporary jazz. Emotional and sophisticated, taking the listener on a journey through landscapes of alluring melodies with a global blend of diverse styles and instrumentation. Distant Borders Revisited: delves into Latin, Middle Eastern, Afro-Cuban and Haitian rhythms.

Each track is a multi-layered, textured palette for Helgeson to paint his diverse guitar melodies. A rich mix of varied percussion keep the groove fresh, tasty and authentic throughout the CD while the guitar and violin exchange melodic inter-play on such tunes as, The Mambo Told Me, Red Moon, and The Whirl. Peter Ostroushko’s shimmering mandolin shares the melodic spotlight with Helgeson on A Wedding on Venus, Latin A La Linda, and River East. On tracks Smooth Wes and Red Moon, Helgeson teams up with local guitar virtuoso and collaborator Dean Magraw who plays funky, in-the groove rhythm and contributes a dazzling guitar solo on Sweet Ears.
