Cape Catastrophe (Gonzo Multimedia, 2013)
Bassist Percy Jones originally released his solo album Cape Catastrophe in 1990. This was a cutting edge recording at the time with Percy Jones playing all instruments, including an arsenal of electronic drums and synthesizers that provide a fabulous accompaniment to his dazzling bass.
Percy Jones was the bass player for one of the UK’s most famed jazz-rock bands, Brand X. Cape Catastrophe reveals Brand X influences as well as echoes of Weather Report plus impressive electronic beat programming and sound designs that take Jones’ music beyond fusion and into the realm of enthralling progressive electronic music.
Cape Catastrophe is an excellent recording that will please electric bass fans as well electronic music aficionados.
