Forfolks: Limited Edition Cool Mint Vinyl LP

Jeff Parker's Forfolks is a fresh solo guitar album. Recorded by Graeme Gibson at Sholo Studio (Jeff's house in Altadena, California) over two days in June 2021. It features interpretations of Thelonious Monk's 'Ugly Beauty' and the classic 'My Ideal', along with six original pieces. These include 'Four Folks', 'La Jetée' (recorded with Tortoise in 1998), and four new loop - driven works that blend melodic improvisation with electronic textures. As Matthew Lux, a veteran Chicago musician and Parker's long - time collaborator, notes, hearing Jeff play solo is special. On this record, he creates entire sound worlds with his ideas. Forfolks follows Parker's well - received 2020 record Suite for Max Brown, which was hailed by Pitchfork. The album debuted at No. 1 on Billboard's Current Contemporary Jazz Chart.
