This reissue gold CD release celebrates Dean Peer”s 1991 critically acclaimed debut recording. Ucross was the first ever completely solo electric bass recording and is still considered to be an orchestral and technical triumph. Peer wrote the book on Bass harmonics – literally… -so it”s not surprising that his solo-bass disc is an extravaganza of ringing notes, chords and clusters. It”s not just an academic demonstration, though, and Peer”s pieces make a convincing case for the creative use of harmonic technique. “”Ucross”” is an Audiophile Classic, and it”s release heralded Dean Peer”s arrival to electric bass-playing”s highest echelon.””Stereophile Magazine. “”The harmonic richness and general sonic elegance of Peer”s sound cannot be overemphasized; in his hands, a four-stringed electric bass has more scope and panache than a six stringed guitar in the hands of other musicians””Option Magazine Bass performance “”A”” – Bass Player magazine.
