“Stephen Goss does not write in a vacuum, and the piece contains references to Frank Zappa, Cornelia Parker (who destroyed a garden shed in a controlled explosion), Shostakovich, Pat Metheney, John McLaughlin, Allan Holdsworth and Robert Fripp. Bewildering? Not at all: Stephen Goss synthesises the lot, making it a personal expression that is rare in the guitar world. And when I read that Fractured Loop is built from reorganised fragments of a Pat Metheney guitar solo superimposed over a cello pizzicato bass line, I was impatient to hear it. The result is one-and-a-half minutes of total pleasure, modern jazz and modern classical at the same time.” Colin Cooper, Classical Guitar Magazine
