Search - 9 Lazy 9 :: Sweet Jones

9 Lazy 9 joined Ninja Tune when Ninja Tune was just one grey metal cupboard in a run down London loft. Operating out of Italy in 1992 they soon gained respect for their ground cracking first album Paradise Blown. Their sound, distinctively more sun than North Sea, is a smoky Mediterranean mix of vines & good times. Keir Fraserello & Giacomo Braddellini have been making music for many years in different guises before combining forces in Rome in the early nineties. They have been working with some of Italy's finest musicians on their latest album, Sweet Jones, recorded in the Umbrian Hills near Orvietto. Gianluca Petrella plays trombone, Mishael Levron guitar, Manu Bandettini plays flute with Adriano Tirelli on bassoon. The combined force brings you one of the freshest records to come out of Italy for some time. 9 Lazy 9 features James Bradell aka Funki Porcini. Ninja Tune. 12 tracks. 2003.
