Matheos, Jim- Away with Words (CD)
From the legendary guitarist of Fates Warning, Away With Words continues Jim Matheos' journey into the realm of evocative, instrumental acoustic music. Originally released in 1999, this sophomore solo album builds on the introspective beauty of First Impressions, weaving intricate guitar work with subtle rhythms and atmospheric textures.The album features Mark Zonder (Fates Warning, A-Z, Warlord) on drums and percussion, adding depth and movement to Matheos' melodic compositions. The result is a richly layered listening experience-thoughtful, technically skilled, and emotionally resonant.Recorded by Bill Metoyer and remastered by Rob Colwell for this 2025 Brutal Planet CD reissue, Away With Words now sounds better than ever. Housed in a jewel case with a 6-panel full-color booklet, this edition preserves the album's unique visual elements-including "Away With Words" printed in sign language on the front cover and shorthand on the back.For fans of: Michael Hedges, Will Ackerman, Steve Hackett (acoustic), Tony MacAlpine (Concrete Gardens), Phil Keaggy, Gordon Giltrap, Andy McKee, and the ambient/acoustic side of David Sylvian and Robert Fripp.
