Gitarzysta Terje Rypdal nigdy nie należał do grona najpopularniejszych muzyków jazzowych, choć jego płyty, wydawane przez monachijski ECM, spotykały się z wielkim rezonansem. Do grupy najwybitniejszych ecm-owskich płyt trafił "Odyssey". Terje Rypdal z gitarą i licznymi elektronicznymi przystawkami, stworzył zaskakujące i brzmieniowo tajemniczą płytę. Dla wielu fanów jazz-rocka Rypdal traktowany był jak prorok nowego jazzu.

Nic więc dziwnego, że wśród gitarzystów na całym świecie znajduje się wielu jego fanów. Wydany przez norweski Rune Grammofon album "Sky Music: Tribute To Terje Rypdal" jest tego potwierdzeniem.
O unikatowości Rypdala niech znaczy fakt, że w nagraniu płyty wzięło udział grono gitarzystów, reprezentujących przeróżne gatunki muzyczne, zawsze jednak dając świadectwo oryginalności procesu twórczego.
Gitarzyści Bill Frisell, David Torn, Even Helte Hermansen, Hans Magnus Ryan, Hedvig Mollestad Thomassen, Henry Kaiser (jesdt także producentem albumu), Raoul Björkenheim, Reine Fiske, Nels Cline i Jim O'Rourke.
Do tego wiolonczelista Erik Friedlander, drummer Gard Nilssen, basista Ingebrigt Haker Flaten i klawiszowiec Stale Storlokken.

“Sky Music: Tribute To Terje Rypdal” ukazało się na CD i na Vinyl 2LP.

Liner notes by Rolling Stone senior editor David Fricke:
Sky Music is a humble and heartfelt celebration of an inspirational artist and truly unique guitarist that hasn´t fully received the due credit and recognition he deserves for over 50 years of excellent music making. Initiated by the experimental US guitarist and lifelong Rypdal fan Henry Kaiser, we put together a Rune Grammofon allstar band including keyboardist and long time Rypdal side-kick Stale Storlokken (Elephant9, Supersilent), bassist Ingebrigt Haker Flaten (Scorch Trio, The Thing), drummer Gard Nilssen (Bushman´s Revenge), guitarists Even Helte Hermansen (Bushman´s Revenge) and Hedvig Mollestad Thomassen, Finnish guitarist Raoul Björkenheim (Scorch Trio) and Swedish guitarist Reine Fiske (Dungen). Kaiser also played and produced while Hans Magnus Ryan (Motorpsycho) added bits and pieces and Jim O´Rourke beamed in his exquisite contributions to "Sunrise" from Tokyo. Bill Frisell, Nels Cline and David Torn delivered solo interpretations, Cline with the aid of cellist Erik Friedlander. Sky Music is their birthday present to Terje Rypdal at 70.

Guitarist and composer Terje Rypdal (1947) is probably as close as one gets to a living legend in Norwegian music. First making a name for himself as a teenager with pop-rock group The Vanguards, this was followed by the inevitable passage through psychedelia with The Dream, releasing their only album, Get Dreamy, in 1967. The following year Rypdal released the extraordinary Bleak House, the first album in his own name. Then followed the self-titled album from Min Bul - his trio with Bjornar Andresen and Espen Rud - before a lifelong and fruitful relation with ECM would see the release of a large number of great albums, taking in jazz, rock oriented albums, symphonies, large ensemble works and various collaborations. The last few years he has also played live with Elephant9 on several occasions.
