Product description

Eberhard Weber's "Fluid Rustle," released on ECM Records in May 1979, is a captivating blend of jazz fusion, krautrock, and free jazz that showcases the German double bassist and composer's unique musical vision. Recorded in January 1979 at Tonstudio Bauer in Ludwigsburg, this album stands out in Weber's discography for its distinctive instrumentation and atmospheric soundscapes.

With only four tracks spanning 39 minutes, "Fluid Rustle" offers a concise yet immersive journey through Weber's innovative compositions. The album opens with "Quiet Departures," setting a contemplative tone that carries through the subsequent tracks. "Fluid Rustle," the title track, exemplifies Weber's mastery of his instrument, weaving intricate bass lines that evoke a sense of movement and fluidity. "A Pale Smile" and "Visible Thoughts" further explore the album's thematic depth, blending improvisational freedom with structured composition.

Produced by Manfred Eicher and engineered by Martin Wieland, "Fluid Rustle" benefits from the pristine production quality that ECM Records is renowned for. The album's minimalist approach and subtle nuances make it a compelling listen for fans of experimental jazz and avant-garde music. Eberhard Weber's "Fluid Rustle" is a testament to his artistic prowess and remains a notable work in the ECM catalog.

This LP was released in 1979.

Unbelievably Amazing Album
5 out of 5 stars
corudrawbwJune 4, 2025United Kingdom🇬🇧
THIS ALBUM IS UNBELIEVABLY AMAZING, LIKE THE BEST EVER MADE IN THE WHOLE WORLD!!! I'M KEEPING IT FOREVER (I SWEAR I'M NOT BIASED). IT'S SO HAUNTINGLY BEAUTIFUL. WEBER'S BASS IS SO FLEXIBLE AND GOES PERFECTLY WITH NORMA WINSTON'S SUPER Smooth VOICE. BILL FRISELL PLAYS SO WELL IN THE BACKGROUND (IT'S JUST RIGHT). THIS ALBUM IS SO GOOD, IT'S LIKE MELTING. IT REMINDS ME OF THAT AWESOME GARY BURTON RECORD "RING". DON'T HATE ON MY REVIEW, IT'S JUST WHAT I THINK (I'M NOT SAYING I'M RIGHT). I'VE LISTENED TO IT AROUND 275 TIMES !!!

OH MY GOSH, THIS IS THE ULTIMATE ALBUM EVER CREATED IN THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE!!! I'M NOT LYING (NO FAVORITISM HERE). IT'S SO BEAUTIFULLY HAUNTING. WEBER'S BASS IS SO FLEXIBLE, IT WRAPS AROUND NORMA WINSTON'S SUPER Smooth VOICE LIKE A GLOVE. BILL FRISELL IS JUST STRUMMING AWAY IN THE BACK (PERFECT, JUST PERFECT). THIS ALBUM IS LIKE A WARM, MELTY GOODNESS. IT'S GOT ME THINKING ABOUT THAT AMAZING GARY BURTON RECORD "RING". DON'T HATE ON MY REVIEW, IT'S JUST WHAT I THINK (I'M NOT CLAIMING TO BE RIGHT). I'VE LISTENED TO IT ABOUT 275 TIMES OR SO!!!
Weber's Masterpiece with Norma
5 out of 5 stars

This is my top pick among Weber's leading albums. The music is absolutely beautiful, with Frisell, Burton, and particularly Weber blending seamlessly, while Norma's otherworldly voice soars and wanders above it all. The Japanese pressing is full of subtle details, soft and hushed.
Weber's Heavenly Masterpiece
5 out of 5 stars

In my opinion, this is the best album led by Weber. The compositions are absolutely beautiful, with Frisell, Burton, and especially Weber blending perfectly, while Norma's heavenly vocals gently float and drift around. The Japanese pressing is full of nuanced details, soft and quiet.
