      And you still can't imagine the results without blurring and often removing the lines between composition and improvisation, between acoustic and electronic sound, and between the percussive counterpoint posed by Staley's trombone to the weird lyricism Frisell manages to achieve with gutturally synthesized blocks of sound.
