![]() The DIG guitarist has stripped back the musical environment to minimalist bass and drums from long-term colleagues Jonathan Zwartz and Hamish Stuart, respectively. Thirteen years is a long time between drinks here’s hoping we don’t have to wait that long for Tim Rollinson’s next outing. ![]() At other times there’s a nod to guitarists Bill Frisell and John Scofield, especially on the penultimate track ‘Meniscus’, which calls to mind Scofield’s mid-period recordings with drummer Bill Stewart. It’s only on the album’s final track, ‘After’, that the trio shrug off any last pretence at restraint, unleashing a searing and blistering improvisation, as if casually letting us know that they could play like this if they so desired. You Tunes is an album that reinforces Rollinson’s place in the front ranks of local jazz guitarists, alongside Steve Magnussen, James Muller, Carl Dewhurst, Geoff Hughes, and Aaron Flower. At times – on tracks like ‘Blueprints’ or ‘White Lion Brow’ – the music conjures the late night moods of Kenny Burrell’s Midnight Blue, or the languid lines of Grant Green’s Idle Moments. There’s a cool veneer to this music, it’s full of defined edges and clean lines, like those found in a Frank Stella painting. It’s clear the musicians are listening and responding to each other at every turn, nudging the music gently forward. There’s nothing flashy going on here, no sudden squalls of notes, pedal effects or feedback. Zwartz’s intricate bass lines are a highlight, the three players locking into a groove that feels timeless. Rollinson’s playing throughout the album is under-stated. Hamish Stuart lays down a steady rhythmic pulse, opening up ample space for Rollinson, whose playing is considered, thoughtful and cool throughout. Clocking in at ten minutes, it unwinds like a slow burning fuse, full of restrained urgency. It doesn’t set out to turn heads, instead letting its laid back grooves draw you in. The album’s standout track is ‘Lazy Circles’. You Tunes is an album that gives up its pleasures slowly.
