Illusion of Immanence by John Bruce Wallace published on 2018-04-18T17:32:29Z Improvised solo electric guitar live. Guitar: John Bruce Wallace aka jacewbal Copyright 2018 John Bruce Wallace Highly abstract music reaching into the depths of the individual. [The] solo electric-guitar improvisations…[v]iolent yet lyrical, feature squeals, buzzes, squawks, and other Fripperies…non-overdubbed electric attack and decay...[H]is playing is a lot less predictable than that of many guitar warriors, and the best of it has a savage beauty that Eddie Van Halen couldn't achieve with six months of overdubs. Mark Jenkins, WASHINGTON CITY PAPER, Washington, DC Solo guitarist John Bruce Wallace, in free improvisation, revamped the modern guitar tradition and, using the technical possibilities of his instrument, transferred it into an individual sound language. Bernd Jahnke (1992) Presentation Zeitgenoessischer Spielarten Improvisierter Musik Vilnius '91". Jazz Podium No. 1 1992, Stuttgart, Germany His sizzling electric distortion...thick and saturated tone captures a kind of steel industrial sound, gently relating to the development of the urban situation, and technological society on which he comments, and to the worldly issues faced by modern development. Wallace's music comes out like a giant question with no apparent answer...tapping the human interior's post pro-harmonic feedback.
