Max Middleton - Two Cranes


















Max Middleton - Two Cranes - 2013

Two Cranes is an intriguing musical voyage combining classical nuances with Max Middleton's inimitable Rhodes keyboard style. Chill-out vibes, driving rhythms and cinematic soundscapes make this his best album to date. The two previous solo albums 'Land of Secrets' and 'One Thousand Sails' drew the following reviews from buyers on CD Baby......

"highly recommended, infusing jazz, Latin and reggae whilst retaining the wonderful Fender Rhodes playing that was the watermark on Jeff Beck's fusion era. Not a moment of disappointment on this album"

"This is music that satisfies on both an intellectual and emotional level. Highly recommended"

"This is an ultra-fine piece of smooth jazz style work with an international flavour. Highly enjoyable rhythms under expert keyboarding along with very subtle vocalisations make this CD the perfect soundtrack for viewing a spectacular summer sunset"

"Finding this after so many years is like stumbling across a buried treasure. It doesn't get any better than this"

Following in the footsteps of two acclaimed albums, Two Cranes adds further dimension and depth to Max Middleton's composing skills and playing style.

Max Middleton - Land of Secrets (re-re-post)



















Max Middleton - Land of Secrets - 2003

Max Middleton is best known as the pianist in the second, most successful version of Jeff Beck Group. Middleton was trained as a classical pianist but also possessed a strong affinity for jazz, and had played in a band called Flare with Trinidad-born bassist Clive Chaman. His hook up with Beck came about in the spring of 1971, while the guitarist was rehearsing the lineup of his reconstituted band (including Chaman) and decided that he needed a pianist. At 20, Middleton was one of the youngest players on the early-'70s blues-rock scene, and his youth, coupled with his devotion to jazz, quickly made him a mainstay of Beck's group - his jazz piano was one of the more successful new elements introduced on the Rough and Ready album, and on the next LP, Jeff Beck Group, Middleton also wrote an outstanding instrumental track entitled "Definitely Maybe." Middleton was also the only member to make the jump from the second version of Jeff Beck Group to the third, which was really the prototypal Beck, Bogert & Appice, but he left before that trio had gotten far into their short-lived hook up. He passed through a group called Gonzales before rejoining Beck in 1974 - with other core members of Gonzales soon to follow - to collaborate with the guitarist on the instrumental Blow By Blow album, which became the top-selling LP of Beck's whole career, reaching number four on the American charts. Middleton also played clavinette on the Wired album that followed, after which he parted company with the guitarist.
