Beefheart fans range from Devo to Joan Osborne to David Byrne and a whole host of younger rockers. Beefheart quit performing in 1982 and devoted himself to painting. This summer, NINE CDs devoted to his music have been released. NPR's Rick Karr reports.

Not a bad price for an Avant title. CD prices are a bit more scary here. Add half as much again for those without credit cards and hence unable to buy except thru local retail. (I'm assuming Mr Rizzi is referring to Tower Records in London). Something completely unrelated... Leo Records, long a bastion of affordable and excellent UK releases, have just started up a new label called (with tongue firmly in cheek) "Golden Years of New Jazz". First batch of releases (fresh out this week) are long-lost 70s and 80s cuts from Sun Ra, John Tchicai, Anthony Braxton and the Ganelin Trio. Stop press reviews are on (musings). As far as I know, they go for a tenner each plus p&p, which is rather civilised.

"The Young Philadelphian" is a project featuring Marc Ribot and John Zorn (among others... of course), the music is based on punk/noise, some very funky parts and the harmolodic concepts of Ornette Coleman (...I think so). It was very funny to watch "people with taste" leaving their good seats in the front row, because it seemed to be too damn noisy for them. Are there any recordings of "The Young Philadelphia" out there in the werstern and eastern hemisphere? "the shape of funk to come" Those people of you who are interested in good and intelligent hardcore-music, check out the Swedish hardcore-band "REFUSED". They have a record called "The shape of punk to come", which is well worth listening. have good time...

T. S. Monk is Monk's son. I remember that his first project was kinda lame funk-soul, but i understand he's doing more conventional jazz now. - -- |> "The only thing that is not art is inattention" --- Marcel Duchamp <| | jzitt@metatronpress.com http://www.metatronpress.com/jzitt | | Latest CD: Shekhinah: The Presence http://www.mp3.com/josephzitt | | Comma: Voices of New Music Silence: the John Cage Discussion List | - - ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 3 Sep 1999 03:54:36 -0400 From: "lava" Subject: Fw: Labor Day Weekend Radio Reggae Marathon (NYC) (please forward) - ----- Original Message ----- From: Brian Linde Newsgroups: rec.music.reggae To: Sent: Thursday, September 02, 1999 10:07 PM Subject: Labor Day Weekend Radio Reggae Marathon (NYC) (please forward) > Just a reminder, starting late Friday night/early Saturday morning: > > King Crown International and WKCR 89.9FM, Present: > The 1999 Labor Day Weekend Reggae Marathon > over 40 hours of commercial-free, non-stop reggae on radio > > ROOTS AND CULTURE - 89.9FM > Saturday, September 4th at 2am - Sunday, September 5th at 7pm > > > ---------------------------------------------------------- > Current Details: > > Saturday September 4th > > 2am - 11am: Vincent Hans, DJ Beans, and friends > 11am - 1pm: Chris Wilson - History of Studio One > 1pm - 4pm: Steve Barrow and Blood and Fire Sound - There's Still Soul in > the Heart of People > 4pm - 5:30pm: Roger Steffens - Rare, Live Bob Marley > 5:30pm - 7:00pm: Amy Wachtel - Righteous Reggae Jams > 7:00pm - 8:30pm: Dermot Hussey - Tribute to Dennis Brown > 8:30pm - 9:30pm: Clive Chin - The Randy's Story > 9:30pm - 11pm: Lance Linares - Tribute to August Pablo > 11pm - 12:30am: Doug Wendt - Lee 'Scratch' Perry Profile > > > Sunday September 5th > > 12:30am - 2am: Chuck Foster - Contemporary Roots > 2am - 7pm: On-Location, Brooklyn (more reggae, more guests) > > ----------------------------------------------------------- > For further information, questions, etc: > e-mail: wkcrial@columbia.edu > phone: 212.854.9290 > > - - ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 3 Sep 1999 14:17:32 +0200 From: Stephen Fruitman Subject: Mori, Garden *** - GARDEN: Ikue Mori Ikue Mori: sampler, drum machines, effects, bamboo. 1996 - Tzadik (USA), TZ 7020 (CD) =2E..and would anyone care to characterize the sound of this particular CD for a listener uninitiated into the sonic world of Mori (though one quite enamoured of her graphic work)?

But they did. It takes some courage to do so, as this is a solo cd by Klucevsek, which means listening to the accordion for about one hour. Isn't that boring? Fortunately Klucevsek is a very capable player and composer and delivers an excellent cd with 'Transylvanian Softwear'. Klucevsek is known for his many cooperarions with musicians from downtown New York: John Zorn, David Garland, Elliot Sharp, etc. He is one of those few artists that succeeded to give the accordion a new life in the new music scene. But Klucevsek never forgets his roots lay somewhere in Eastern Europe. References to polka music and other world music are obvious on many of his output. This makes his 'new music' very listenable and accessible. This is also the case with 'Transylvanian Softwear'. Most compositions are from Klucevsek himself, others are from John Zorn, =46red Frith, William Duckworth. Most compositions are known from earlier cds, but presented here for the first time in a solo-version. So this one is for fans only I guess (DM).
