Bley's classic 1966 trio album for ESP-Disk, CLOSER, is a study in restraint. Moving confidently from melodic lyricism to explosive bursts of tone color, Bley and his compatriots--drummer Barry Altschul and bassist Steve Swallow--strike a pleasing balance between order and chaos, creating music as evocative as it is challenging.","brand":"InnerSleeve","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41920986906789,"sku":"825481102117","price":32.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/6007\/1077\/files\/ac22bccaa0afcf155e4836dc6d649ae6_96dd534c-ace2-4e89-b542-e8749fa8aac0.jpg?v=1781146273","url":"https:\/\/www.innersleeve.com\/products\/closer-2017-vinyl-reissue-lp","provider":"InnerSleeve","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
