AMM

Usually a trio of drummer Eddie Prévost, saxophonist Lou Gare and guitarist Keith Rowe, Amm has explored the minimalist fringe of avant-garde chance operations and improvisational jazz since its inception in 1965. The group debuted with Ammmusic in 1967, and released two additional albums during the late '60s. Much more quiet during the following decade, Amm became jazz-oriented for a brief period when only Prévost and Gare remained. The addition of composer Cornelius Cardew, and frequent classical musicians (cellist Rohan de Saram, pianist John Tilbury), tilted the balance back towards classical minimalism.
