Terje Rypdal - Descendre (1980)


Previously on OPIUM HUM:
Terje Rypdal - Bleak House (1968)
Terje Rypdal - After the Rain (1976)
Terje Rypdal, Miroslav Vitous, and Jack DeJohnette - S/T (1979)
Terje Rypdal, Miroslav Vitous, and Jack DeJohnette - To Be Continued (1981)
Ketil Bjørnstad, David Darling, Terje Rypdal, & Jon Christensen - The Sea (1995) + The Sea II (1998)

Yet another stellar release from Norwegian guitarist Terje Rypdal. Descendre is Rypdal's most keyboard-heavy work, from eerie album-opener "Avskjed" to the lush, slow-burning "Speil".

Track listing:
1. Avskjed
2. Circles
3. Descendre
4. Innseiling
5. Men of Mystery
6. Speil
