Terje Rypdal - What Comes After. 1974 Norway


Like with John Abercrombie's Timeless, I thought I'd already heard Rypdal's 3rd solo album What Comes After. But this listen confirmed that I had not. One of his more abstract works, the album is very spacious and a bit on the noirish side. Great for late night solo listening. There's a bass heavy focus, while Rypdal adds plenty of atmospheric electric guitar. Fine album if in the right mood - which apparently I was.


Ownership: LP: 1974 ECM (USA). Single sleeve. The hype sticker on the shrink of my copy states: "Records Are Your Best Entertainment Value". What was true in 1974 remains true today! Found this with the aforementioned Abercrombie for $2 at a Denver area record store. Have a few more to go from this nice score.
