Synopsis

Product Description
From the San Francisco poetry underground comes the voice of Robert Anbian, backed by electronic percussionist E. Doctor Smith and Bay Area sax legend Charles Unger, plus keyboardist Sam Peoples and bassist Mike Shea. UFQ makes its own magic inspired by the music of Miles Davis, Thelonius Monk, and Bobby Hutcherson, with infusions of Brian Eno, the Grateful Dead, and something else.

Known for his lyrical-epic "WE" series, and such topical effronteries as "Haikus for the White House", Robert Anbian has been described by fellow poet Richard Hack as "a passionate virtuoso steeped in these times and deep with tradition" [whose] "poetry crackles with currency hiply linguistic turns of natural originality, rhythmically brimming with a tempestuous taste of ecstasy, reason, and love." Dusty Dog Reviews declared him "a genius or a Venusian".
E. Doctor Smith has played with Brian Eno, Madonna, and Warren Zevon, among others, and is the inventor of the electronic Drummstick®. The Unidentified Flying Quartet, an ever-expanding universe of concepts and players, is his brainchild. Charles Unger leads the Charles Unger Experience, with Sam Peoples at the keyboard, and can be heard regularly at San Francisco's Les Joulin's Jazz Bistro and the Rassela's Jazz Club. Mike Shea has played bass for hip-hop groups Subterraneanz and Triple Ave.
