ラルフ・タウナーのAna、Anthemに続くソロアルバムです。Anaが美しいメロディと響きを追い求めると同時に内省的な世界を対比させたアルバムなら、AnthemはAnaの後半に通じるような冷たい質感で、そのジャケットのとおりモノクロのような内省的な美の世界を繰り広げていると思います。そしてこのTime Lineは、前2作の世界観を融合させたようなアルバムだと思います。そればかりかそれまでのタウナーの音楽の集大成のようなスケールの大きを感じてしまいます。全体的な質感は余計な甘さを捨て去りながらも、内省的な美しさ、たくましさ、暖かさを感じます。部屋の明かりを消して聴いてみてください。その世界観をよりいっそう輪郭を持って感じることができると思います。何よりその高度なテクニックに支えられた大胆でいて繊細なプレイがきっとあなたの心に響くでしょう。ギター一本でこれほどの世界観を表現してしまうのだからタウナーはまさに偉大なミュージシャンだと思います。大ベテランにしてその音楽的ポテンシャルは衰えるどころか、その人生と共に深みを増すばかりです。僕はこのアルバムはタウナーの最高傑作の一枚だと思います。すばらしい。

ラルフターナーソロギター vol,1 〜 2
洋書である。
1-1 をみる。変拍子のコロコロ変わる曲。途方にくれる。
しかしよく見ると、分数の加減式だ。割り切れる。
学習者に、自分で考えて、答えを見つけなさい、と促している。
手強いパズルだ。
なお、動画はユーチューブにある。見てびっくり、、、
腕が飛ぶように、動く。留まらない。

1曲目"The pendant"のビミョーに調和から外れるメロディライン,それとは対照的に切ないメロディをシンプルに弾く3曲目"Always by your side",中ほどにある短時間の断片の連続,"Five glimpses".そしてカバー"Come rain or come shine".5年前の作品"Anthem"も比較的短い曲が並んでいたが,その点では本作も一緒.しかし,本作の方がより曲と曲のつながりを意識させられるように思う.そういった印象が,"Time line"というアルバムのタイトルと非常に良く合っている.ジャケットの「世界の車窓から」みたいなイメージと重なる.緊張感も本作の方が高い.しびれる.
"One quiet night"を出しているPat MethenyとRalph Townerを比較すると,色々な意味で対照的ではないかと思う.本作のような作品に接することができるから,ECMというレーベルはすごい.

オレゴンの35周年アルバムやオリバー・カー・オーリオのアルバムへの参加などこの頃活動が盛んになってきた、ピエール・ベンスーザンと並ぶアコースティックギターの巨匠のソロ名義での久々の新作。ECM作品ではアンセム依頼となる作品。伝家の宝刀12弦ギターを使用したラスト2曲は特に感動的で久々に戦慄を感じた。一時期の穏やかな作風から最近は徐々に70年代を感じさせる冷徹で緊張感溢れる質感が復活してきたように思える。傑作。神の技が冴え渡る、全ギターファン必聴。来日希望。

Great music, but beware the reverb of doom

This is the latest masterful work of colour and complexity from one of THE greatest guitarist/composers of our time, and probably any other time. Time Line is the third straight solo guitar album from Ralph Towner (the Oregon album, etc. notwithstanding), and his great talents have not diminished one iota. He is an outstanding composer, and an amazing guitarist. Both these gifts are on full display here in this highly creative and deeply accomplished work.
His compositions on this album are in turn sweet and lilting, reflective, melodic, dissonant, and sometimes spicy. They are always interesting, sometimes fantastic. There are some great tunes here, and some seriously great guitar craft; great enough to add interest even on those few less-appealing explorations.
What's new? Well, the now regular improvised short pieces are this time played on the nylon-strung guitar, unlike other recent recordings where they were done on the 12-string. Of course, the compositions on this album are new as well. (There are two standards also.) How does he write so much great music?! Mind you, some of these pieces may only be of interest to guitar aficionados, or those interested in angular, more abstract modern music - but then, there are a few of us aren't there!?
Despite such a big upside, there is a small downside. Also new are the setting and the engineer, and this turns out to be a disappointing factor for me. While some have enjoyed the sound and even praised the album's overall vibe, at times the recording to me feels quite distant and cold. Despite the guitar being the centre of attention, the anticipated warmth and intimacy of the instrument is missing. This is acoustic guitar we're talking about! Yet Ralph's guitar on this album seems to lack presence, and may in fact need CPR after nearly drowning in reverberation! I am a huge fan of several ECM artists and love the recordings they make, but on this occasion I find myself wishing I were in the tropics.
On some tracks, notably the first, the sound of the guitarist sucking in short breaths through his nose was a startling intrusion into my listening experience! Ralph is on record regarding the notoriously difficult instrument that is the guitar, and like other ECM recordings this is a live performance - no endless takes and overdubbing here. Yet even I find this noisy intrusion hard to get `round. Keith Jarrett's infamous whining doesn't bother me at all, and yet here we have Ralph's nostrils making unwelcome percussive additions to the recording! Intimate, yes, but not the sort we're after methinks!
Don't hate me, but I also feel the programming could have been better. At times there are pieces in the same key following each other, which doesn't do justice to either Ralph or the music. Then there's the fact that the two standards are at the very end, sandwiching an abstract piece. Not quite ideal for mine. Perhaps I'll hit the CD player's `shuffle' function for this one.
These things are, of course, highly subjective, and are just things I personally felt the need to mention. Ralph's masterful performances easily save the day; and more than that, show a great musician at the height of his powers. Highly recommended, but dress warmly.

Easy enough to contend with, to differ with, to agree with alot of what's been said here regarding this Magisterial piece of work. But finally I simply allow myself to drift to flow to conjure other spheres with the tumble and patterns and bracing echoes of notes AND? It works, ladies and gentlemen, and it works incredibly well. Case in point 'Freeze Frame' All of you who have reviewed here, go "reaudit" this work NOW. Just allow it its space, its interiority, its special interlocution. And then email me about the experience. 5 or 10 or however many stars there may be. Thanks, Ralph.

This CD got raving reviews both musically and sonically in the German Stereoplay maganzine. It is nice I agree but you have heard this stuff before and R Towner has made better stuff. Also sonically I have heard better CDs so I mean even if I do not regret bying it it is not as fantastic.

What Was Ralph Thinking?
2006年10月21日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済みAmazonで購入
This album is poorly recorded. Many people have praised this album's audio quality, but I am here to set the record straight: it's awful. First of all, there's way too much reverb when playing a huge open space like a church. If it were mixed right, then they would or should have been able to cut out alot of the church's natural reverb. It's a live setting, but it doesn't sound good at all. Secondly, Ralph is making alot of noise changing chords and switching to single-note lines. Part of the art of playing solo guitar is not making pick or finger noises when changing strings. Anyone who's into solo guitar and/or enjoys playing solo guitar should take that into careful consideration. Lastly, why is Ralph playing by himself anyway? He could play with almost anyone in the world he wants to, but no what we have here is yet another stale attempt to do something he's done way too much already.
I love Ralph Towner's music and his guitar and piano playing, but I think it's kind of ridiculous that he continues to do more and more of these solo guitar albums when he is better at playing with other musicians. I'll give this album 2 stars and those 2 stars go to Ralph Towner. Don't waste your time with this album. If you want to hear Ralph Towner play something fantastic with a group then check out his 1975 ECM album "Solstice." "Solstice" is truly one of the greatest achievements of Towner's long musical career.
