Beanbender's continues to have great shows every Sunday, but the Dark
Circle lounge series (run by Gino Robair/Rastascan) no longer happens at
the Hotel Utah.

Pranzo Oltranzista is listed as having 13 tracks as opposed to 11, with a
very different order, with some track names that are not even on the CD, nor
anywhere in any of the subtitles, nor anywhere else on the CD insert......??

You can also get it from Rough Trade Shop (http://www.roughtrade.com) for
about $19 US. Also worth noting that _Asana_ was released in Europe this
week, also on Douglas Records. I called Downtown Music Gallery last week
to order the new Ion discs and Bruce mentioned that Douglas still did not
have a distribution deal in the US, so it may be awhile before they reach
our shores.

I'm with you on the new Melvins release. They've yet to cease amazing me.
Saw them play here in Seattle a month or so ago and after seeing them maybe
15 times over the years, this show blew me all the way away. If you get a
chance to see them soon, they are in high gear and top form.
I've heard excellent things about the Godflesh remix CD but have yet to

Dear everyone, this just in from Cargo, distributors of Tzadik in the
UK.
The Parachute box is due in August. It will apparently be a six (or was
it 7?) disc set comprising all the releases for Chadbourne's Parachute
label together with 'hours' of extra material. There will also be
extensive sleevenotes and annotations. Limited to 1000 worldwide. It
checks in at a not-so-cheap 75 pounds; convert it to your local currency
and weep...
I've ordered mine!

This is a brand new Laswell disc, correct? Has anyone heard it? or,
does anyone 'know' what it sounds like, who (if anyone) it features etc.?
If it's listed on the Axiom site, I haven't been there in a while ...

Subject: Frisell on PBS
Just wanted to make sure everyone knows Bill Frisell will be coming across
the airwaves soon. There is a new series on PBS called "Sessions at West
54th", its on every Saturday at 11:00 pm, on channel 13 in the NJ/ NY area.
It features two artists a show, a half hour each, with three or four tunes,
and some interviews thrown in. August 9th is the date for Frisell (and Sonic
Youth). I was at the Frisell taping, it was quite the show, with Jimmie Dale
Gilmore, Jerry Douglas, Victor Krauss, Robin Holcomb, and Frisell's regular
quartet. Other artists in the series are Wynton Marsalis, Suzanne Vega,
Billy Brag, Bobby McFerrin, Keb Mo, Shawn Colvin, Richard Thompson, et al.
Check out the web site: sessionsatwest54th.com.

Greetings from New Hampshire!!!!
I live about an hour from Boston and try to go to any Avant Garde type stuff
that comes. Unfortunately, I don't know of any shows the week you are
going. You might want to check out a club in cambridge Mass (you can get
there by taking the red line of Boston's subway called "The T". The Middle
East has had Painkiller live, boredoms, and in general a lot of
college/indie stuff. For Jazz, you could try Johnny D's in Cambridge (I
once saw Frisell there) or Scullers (pricier , snobbier Jazz acts). As far
as record stores are concerned, I'd take a look at stero Jack's in cambridge
for choice used vinyl, and Twisted Village in Harvard Square (where I found
Masada 7).
If you have any Boston questions, e-mail me and I'll try and help you out.
Happy hunting,

I'd recommend Beanbender's in Berkeley, myself. It's one of the best venues
in the Bay Area for good improv, IMHO. I don't have a phone number offhand,
but it's in the Berkeley Store Gallery Annex at 2295 Shattuck Avenue.

It's a great disc...I like the remixes much better then the songs that

One database I saw listed it as featuring "Bill Laswell, Material, Jah"
which I'm going to assume is Jah Wobble. Beyond that I don't know. I
believe that the Axiom site metions something about 4 tracks of Indian

just to keep with the theme of love and hate...i am the first person i have
met who hated the re-mix...everyone seems to love it...i had it traded back
to tower records as soon as possible...and i loved the original...and i
usually love broadrick's remixes...go figure...
i traded it for the most recent by Tony Oxley and the Celebration Orchestra

these four tracks were gathered at the behest of yoga and meditation

How this public demand manifested itself may be left dear reader to your
