Shimri (album)
Shimri is the second album by Norwegian jazz bassist and composer Arild Andersen, recorded in 1976 and released on the ECM label. Reception
The Allmusic review by Jim Todd awarded the album 2½ stars stating: "On Shimri, musical release floats in suspension, grooves are coyly offered then withdrawn, swing is used sparingly, subtly, making only an occasional splash in the ripples of intimate conversation among the members of Arlid Andersen's outstanding quartet".
