There is a fine recording of her with cellist David Eyges from a few
years back... Here and Now on Word Of Mouth Records... and she does some
beautiful work on Jane Bunnett's The Water Is Wide on Denon.
One of my favorite singers.

Who is on this album (BLASE) and how does it compare to his other stuff.
I've listened to Four for Trane, Mama Too Tight, and Live in San Francisco
by Shepp and liked them for the most part but none have grabbed me as much
as I expected considering some reviews I've seen. I'm asking b/c I've
seen BLASE in a local store, on the Charly label.

I found "De Onderste Steen" a good introduction, spanning a fair amount
of Breuker's esoteric breadth (selections from 1972-1991 or so). "Deze
kant op, dames," on the other hand, I haven't been able to arouse any
fascination for despite some positive reviews....

Just a quick note to thank those who enthused about this band, which
turned out a solid show at Bath on Saturday, although I think Pino
should have been given a separate vocal mic for his blatherings. Was
it Ken who asked whether Actis Dilo still wore Vulcan ears? Whoever,
the answer is no, but his playing doesn't seem to suffer from their
absence. A lot of the material played was from "Sudori" which I can
highly recommend.

If you are interested by the Kollektief (which has been WB's main vehicle), I
would recommend the (early) following two (which are both CD reissues and
should still be available):
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*** - A PARIS/SUMMER MUSIC: Willem Breuker Kollektief
1978 - Marge (France), 05 (LP)
1993 - Marge (France), 152012 (CD)

*** - LIVE AT THE DONAUESCHINGEN MUSIC FESTIVAL: Willem Breuker Kollektief
1976 - MPS (Germany), ??? (LP)
1995 - MPS (Germany), 529089-2 (CD)
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Both were recorded in the late 70's, well before the band started to specia-
lize in "a la maniere de". The music succeeds in combining fun, great playing
(amazing free blowing solos), fantastic songs (that stick even after the 1st
listening). A PARIS, for example, can give you a good idea of how much
pleasure attending a WBK concert might have been.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
It is very varied: protest song, blues, standard, and to top the cake, one of
the most amazing power trio: Shepp + Favors + Jones.

It is my favorite record by Shepp because it displays in a very successful
way the multiple talents of Shepp. All the songs are remarkably played. I
am tempted to say that if you don't like BLASE, you don't like Shepp at all.
This is hence a very good investement :-).

And it is getting kind of hard to find...

Continuing my EOTH-related queries, does anyone know of any
publications of Haines' poetry (or prose, for that matter), web-based
or hard copy, music-related or otherwise?
In my net rummagings for same, I did come across a pretty interesting
blow-by-blow recounting of the creation of EOTH, written by Carla Bley
in 1972 at:
http://stadtgarten.de/bley.html
She mentions the filming of much of the recording (including some by
Shirley Clarke); has this ever surfaced? She also cites a ratio of 20
to 1, recorded material to used. Kinda mouth-watering, that.

I haven't heard either of these two, but Zingaro's solo violin disc on that
label is really great. Definitely my favorite recording of his that I've

Just picked up the below at the Vision Fest and today was only able to
play it through about half way. From a quick listen it sounds good, but
definitely more on the "classical" (whatever that means) than the "jazz"
(whatever that means) sides of Lea & Zing. Since I was doig work, running
up and down stairs at the same time etc. it seems to me that there was
some vocalizing from both parties in there as well.
After seeing Joelle play with McPhee and Hemmingway last week, I just *had*
to buy another Leandre disc. I already own her hatology with Fritz Hauser
and Urs Leimgruber, which is strongly recommended.
Now if only someone would put out a disc featuring those three plus
Marilyn Crispell as played at FIMAV last year...

<< This is from the Aquarius records new releases list. This is news to me
and I figured some others might be interested. Has anyone heard this?
SPRAWL s/t (Trost) cd 13.98
Noise/jazz/improv/rock unit Sprawl has a lineup that includes saxophone
legend Peter Brotzmann, bassist extraordinare William Parker and reedsman
Alex Buess (of Swiss jazz-industrialists 16-17 as well as Ice and God).
Since any of those names by themselves pretty much insures top quality, we
had high expectations for this disc, and it's no disappointment. Also in
the band, guitarist Stephan Wittiuer and drummer Michael Wertmuller
(Alboth!, Caspar Brotzmann Massaker). Fans of those bands, Last Exit,
etc., must take note. Looks like a 1997 release, but we've not come across
it until now, due to it being a Austrian import, and it was only just
reviewed in The Wire last issue.

Subject: Lee Morgan in '70, '71
Two inquiries re: Lee Morgan
I have this LP on DJM (England) called "All that Jazz" recorded live "
in Los Angeles in the summer of 1970" and I'm wondering if it's the
same as "Live at the Lighthouse" recorded live July 1970. Lineup is
Benny Maupin, Harold Mabern, Jymie Merritt and Micky Roker. Songs are
Willow Weep for Me, Peyote, Speedball, Ujamma, Ceora.
I also have a Memorex tape 60 minute cassette (MRX2 Oxide), recorded
from some long-forgotten source. On the label, I simply wrote "Lee
Morgan, Sept. 17 & 18, 1971. Capri Black/Angela/Croquet Ballet/In What
Direction Are you Headed?/Inner Passions Out." Stylistically, this is
the most adventurous Morgan I've heard. If I recall correctly, there's
tenor, flute, electric and acoustic piano, lots of acoustic bass solos,
drums, some kalimba, briefly some double reed instrument like a musette
and possibly trombone. It's a studio recording. "Inner Passions Out"
could almost be a Sun Ra cut, with considerable free improvising (over
free rhythm). The balance of the recording does not stretch quite so
far but is more open-ended and extended than anything else I've
encountered from Morgran, including "All That Jazz" -- this is
conceptually distinct from that recording. Anybody know anything 'bout
this recording? I find the album extremely charming. Anybody have a
good copy that they could make me a better copy of? (plenty to offer in
trade -- let me know your interests). But more information alone would
be welcomed.
Thanks.

Martin:
Judging from the date and the personnel this indeed appears to be the
Live At The Lighthouse session. I only have the original 2-LP set,
though, which contains "Absolutions", "The Beehive", "Neophilia" and
"Nommo". Blue Note has recently reissued this as a two *CD* set, so mayeb
those tunes are on the "newly-discovered" sessions.
