- Jack_Clift abstract "Jack Clift (born September 15, 1955, in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma) is an American Composer and Music Producer. He is best known for his hybrid soundscapes combining elements of American folk music, jazz and bluegrass music with traditional instruments and singers from the many countries he has visited.Clift's recordings feature virtuoso performances from Sardegna, Turkey, Corsica, Malta, and most notably Uzbekistan where he has been a part-time resident since 2004. That was when he co-founded the American-Uzbek musical group, Jadoo. Jadoo's members are Toir Kuziev, Utkur Kadirov, Otanazar Khudaynazarov, Olim Khakimov, Nodir Umarov, Abdulakhad Abdrashidov, Matrasul Matyokubov, Gulom Mukhamedjanov and other musical contributors.Clift has had compositions licensed by ABC for the 1996 Summer Olympics ("Guitarland", title track of Los Angeles guitarist Tim Pierce's solo album) and the nationally syndicated radio program, Car Talk ("Borrowed Car", co-written with Tom Adler and title track of Adler's CD). In September 2006, Clift met with John Carter Cash in Hendersonville, Tennessee where the two conceived an ambitious project melding the Central Asian influences of Jadoo with traditional American mountain music, including songs from the catalogue of the Carter Family. Clift then returned to Tashkent, Uzbekistan and met with Tatar guitarist Enver İzmaylov and the members of Jadoo for the first recording sessions of the project. Upon his return to the United States, he reconvened with Cash in Tennessee to begin introducing the contributions of mountain singer Ralph Stanley, recipient of the National Medal of Arts in 2006, country music icon Marty Stuart, The Peasall Sisters (O Brother, Where Art Thou?, Down from the Mountain), Randy Scruggs, Ronnie McCoury, John Cowan, Greg Leisz, and Ron Miles, thus forming the group Cedar Hill Refugees. This project, titled Pale Imperfect Diamond had a limited release in 2009. "Keys to the Kingdom", featuring Ralph Stanley, was chosen to be the first track on Coal Country Music, a compilation produced by Andy Mahler and Jason Wilber as a companion to the Sierra Club film Coal Country.A second Jadoo album, And Darkling Waters Flow, was also released in 2009. This beat-oriented instrumental album features the guitar work of longtime collaborator Tim Pierce.In June 2009, Clift was invited to perform with Jadoo for an episode of PBS travel series Rudy Maxa's World, working with travel guru Rudy Maxa and Emmy award winning director Sue McNally. Jadoo not only performs live, but selections from various Jadoo CDs are featured prominently throughout the episode. Continuing this collaboration, Clift, Maxa, and McNally have begun developing a concert documentary that will bring the musicians of these two great traditions together for a concert.2009 also brought the online pre-release of Horses Fleet as Wind, a collection of live studio improvisations featuring Jadoo with special guests Enver İzmaylov, and Vitaliy Papelov. This title is currently available only as a download from the Effigy Records website but rumors of a pending packaged commercial release persist.Currently, Clift and John Carter Cash are in the production of the Cedar Hills Refugees follow-up album. Veterans of Pale Imperfect Diamond, such as Ralph Stanley, The Peasall Sisters, Marty Stuart and John Cowan are again featured as well as several new guest collaborators: Jerry Douglas, Bela Fleck, Rosanne Cash, Sam Bush, bluegrass singer Dave Evans and acclaimed Virginia traditional singer, Elizabeth LaPrelle.".
