Originally released on Linear Obsessional in 2021.
With the closing of LinOb in 2022, all remaining copies of Summiting (include digital downloads) will be available on Burning Harpsichord Records.
Original release notes:
LinOb's latest release is a cassette of two long, immersive improvisations by the Texan guitarist/composer Bill Thompson and amplified melodeon player Richard Sanderson.
Exploring a slo-mo environment of sustained tones and mysterious incident, the tracks are enveloping and compelling.
The download includes a third bonus track "First Ascent" a recording of the first meeting of Sanderson and Thompson at 100 Years Gallery, London.
The found cover image is a three dimensional anaglyph, the cassettes come with a free pair of 3D glasses, and a download coupon.
