Patrick O´Hearn-Rivers Gonna Rise (1988)

Hardened in many experiences such as having collaborated with Frank Zappa, and having belonged to different bands such as Group 87 with Mark Isham and Missing Persons with Terry Bozzio, Patrick O'Hearn combined them as a session musician especially in the jazz world, before beginning a glittering solo career.
After signing for the Private label, O'Hearn proved to be a musician who created great atmospheres and precise rhythms in counterpart to the jazz improvisation with which he had extensive experience and had grown professionally.
After publishing his first album "Ancient Dreams" of dark environments and lively rhythms, "Between Two Worlds" would arrive more complete than its predecessor, until in 1988 he published his masterpiece "Rivers Gonna Rise"
An album where electronic and acoustic percussions, keyboards and an emphasis on the electric bass and with the help of ex-bandmates from his old bands (Terry Bozzio, Mark Isham, Peter Maunu or Warren Cucurullo) created an unforgettable experience of rich sonic nuances thanks to its freshness and homogeneity with a classic album in the genre of the "new age".
