Subject: Chris Cutler
For all of you in the northern New England area, Chris Cutler will be
performing solo on March 25th at the Fine Arts Theater in Portland, ME.
The venue used to be a porn theater but is now doing some interesting
things. The other week I saw M.S.B.R., Gov't Alpha, Crank Sturgeon, and
that guy Ron with the 4-handle turntable among others take part in big
long noise-fest there which was pretty fun. I don't know ticket prices
but they should be pretty cheap. If anyone wants any more info about
this, feel free to ask me.
Also, The Fringe will be playing at the Free Street Taverna in Portland
on the 28th.
Anyone gonna go see Meredith Monk in Boston in April?

Is his whole tour itinerary posted anywhere? I've been seeing apparently
disconnected bits of it here and there. (I'm especially hoping that he's
playing in/near DC sometime.)

Strange. I thought that PONGA was Skerik's record (featuring Horvitz), and VOG
was Wayne's "noise" trio (with Skerik and Horvitz).

Subject: Kakashi and Captian Trip Records?
I'm sitting here listening to a CD I picked up by Kakashi on the Japanese
Psych label Captain Trip.
There is no info on the disc except the track titles and band name. Anyone
wanna fill me in. Very early sounding psychedelic music with lots of solid
organ playing.
I discovered Captain Trip a year or so ago when I was blown away by the
Space Explosion release but was a little let down by the Tiere Der Nacht
release which is the Mani Neumeier (Guru Guru), Luigi Archetti colaberation.
Any info on other Captain Trip releases?

WHO IS ZONY MASH?
ZONY MASH FEATURES:
WAYNE HORVITZ: HAMMOND B3 ORGAN, KEYBOARDS
TIMOTHY YOUNG: GUITAR
KEITH LOWE: BASS
ANDY ROTH: DRUMS
WHAT IS ZONY MASH?
A truly far-out musical mix emerged when Wayne Horvitz=92s Zony Mash made=
its
performing debut in late 1995 =96 and 1999 finds their soulful recipe hon=
ed to
near-perfection. You=92ll encounter a myriad of familiar flavors, includ=
ing
sixties-styled psychedelic rock (Grateful Dead, Quicksilver Messenger
Service, Moby Grape), earthy blues-based grandeur (The Band, Captain
Beefheart, Bob Dylan) =96 and space-bound freedoms (Cecil Taylor, Sun Ra,=
Art
Ensemble of Chicago) =96 but the resulting after-taste is wholly original.
Although Zony Mash draws heavy inspiration from the past, they never succ=
umb
to derivative nostalgia. Imagine instead a uniquely modern, unpredictabl=
e
take on these timeless Fillmore-era grooves =96 and a bandleader bent on
pushing his music in new directions. Zony Mash=92s funky musicianship al=
one
is cause for celebration =96 but it=92s Wayne=92s inimitable songwriting =
that has
set them apart. He=92s got a razor sharp rhythmic sense, a knack for sly
melodies =96 and a band that=92s never out of step. Like Wayne, Zony Mas=
h is
ultimately beyond comparison.
Back in the eighties, Wayne Horvitz cut his teeth among some of New York=92=
s
most adventurous musicians =96 such as Butch Morris, Bill Frisell, John Z=
orn
(Naked City, etc.), Fred Frith, William Parker, Bobby Previte, Elliot Sha=
rp,
Carla Bley, Billy Bang, Robin Holcomb, and Marty Erlich. It is during th=

period that his talents as a composer and improviser began to emerge =96
whether writing and playing with his band =93The President=94, the New Yo=

Composers Orchestra (which he co-founded) =96 or providing music for nume=
rous
theatre & dance productions, including Bill Irwin=92s =93Strictly N.Y.=94=

debut of his Four Plus One Ensemble (an electro-acoustic chamber group

=93Otis
Spann=94 (a tribute in six movements) with the Seattle Chamber Players at

TV special, =93Tales From the Farside II=94 (with Bill Frisell & Eyvind K=

Accolades continue to pile up for Pigpen, his now-defunct punk-jazz
quartet =96 and collaborations with Bobby Previte, John Zorn & Bill Frise=

(whose upcoming Elektra Nonesuch release features Wayne on the Hammond B3
organ, alongside Victor Krauss & Jim Keltner) continue to keep him busy. =
He
=92s also a highly regarded producer, having worked with artists as diver=
gent
as Fontella Bass, Eddie Palmieri, Bill Frisell, Robin Holcomb, and The Wo=
rld
Saxophone Quartet.
Wayne divides his time between composing, producing other artists, and
writing for film & TV. When it comes to playing live, however, Zony Mash=
is
his primary focus =96 and he brings the entirety of his diverse musical
experiences & influences to the music. Consequently, the band has a
tremendously wide appeal. They=92re capable of not only wowing sophistic=

Montreux, Vancouver, Pori & North Sea Festivals) =96 but also blowing awa=

Not
surprisingly, their two album releases (1996=92s Cold Spell & 1998=92s Br=

Spankin=92 New) have been critically acclaimed by both college-hipster
publications (such as CMJ) =96 and traditional hepcat magazines (such as

Anthony Colemans Disco By Night is on AVANT and is really good stuff. Although it's
very short (only about 30 minutes) it serves as an example that size doesn't matter
;-). It's really worth buying. Musically Anthony Coleman mixes his personal style
with influences from former-yuguslawian pop music. Very exciting.

Do they still run that advert "It's alluring .... It's the best of
jazz ... with a Canadian flavour"??
We had it free for two weeks, tho' only from midnight to 4am. I
couldn't find a detailed schedule anywhere, but quickly realised that
midnight to 2am was ALWAYS pop/soft-rap videos (is this REALLY called
R'n'B nowadays ???!!). By assiduously videoing 26 or 28 hours worth,
I got two great studio concerts, with irritating fadeouts to adverts
in the middle of solos, and maybe another 2 hours of worthwhile stuff
(including a profile cut with performance of Don Pullen).
Did Tony Oxley used to drum in Seven Steps To Evans? Certainly Beck,
wheeler and Sulzman were in that group?
Hot tip for Historians:
FREE FORM by the Joe Harriot Quintet, from 1960, recently reissued on
ReDial. With Shake Keane on trumpet. I'm rushing straight out to
buy ABSTRACT, reissued at the same time.
And a request:
Does anyone have the Mosaic complete candid recordings of Mingus and
a CD_R facility? I had the set, but it was stolen after mosaic sold
out. They were able to find me discs 2 and 3, and although I bought
"Mingus presents Mingus" when the insurance came through, i miss not
having Stormy Weather and the drum solo on the same set. Plus, the
copy of Mingus Presents Mingus is on ZYX, and is one of the few CDs
where I'm a bit sniffy about the quality of transfer/mastering.
E-mail me for swap negotiations if you'd like to make someone happy!

He does excellent work on Herb Robertson's CERTIFIED, which people should (try
to) grab if they don't have it. May be oop, since it's on JMT. That's the
last I've heard of him.
i last heard mack goldsbury during my visit with some friends and playing some
gigs of my own in berlin this last oct
he was playing at the bandenscher hof with the ernst bier quartet ( ernst
bier/dms, wolfgang kohler/piano, martin lillich/bass, ..
he sounded great as always, playing tenor/soprano- we got to visit some and
sounds like he's busy as ever, gigging lots in europe with an occasional stint
in the states once or twice a year-
ciao,
julian
..... for those interested if and when in berlin, the hof is a great place to
hear jazz from bop to post bop
