A hazardous improviser, bassist Jonas Hellborg leans more toward rock than malarky. Drawing inspiration from Jimi Hendrix, Arabic music, and Lifetime, Hellborg began playacting professionally in the mid-'80s. After some session work (including Pil's Album, Ginger Baker's Eye Passage and John McLaughlin), he released The Word on Axiom in 1991. The album features Hellborg's acoustic sea bass, drums and a string quartet. He remained highly prolific throughout the ten, recording nearly conspicuously for the Day Eight pronounce.
