So, I had the pleasure of meeting and talking with Mark Dresser last
night at Jon's mainsine show (which was wonderful) and we were
discussing Braxton and his amazing ability to come up with new ideas
(viz: the Ghost Trance Comp. 247 for two reeds and bagpipes, which is
great!) and Dresser mentions a recording (as yet unreleased, I assume)
on CIMP: a duo of Braxton and....a comedian! No kidding. Anyone know
about this or have further info?

Has anyone heard this album yet? There hasn't been
many comments on it, though it's only been available
for a couple weeks.....
Myself, I'm waiting for Songs of the Hermetic Theater
instead....

Subject: mainsine lineup change
for anyone interested in the Tonic shows tonight, Christian Marclay may be
sitting in with poire_z for the late set, depending on whether he's free and
whether we can figure out a way to plug everyone in successfully. I won't
know for sure until tonight.

Subject: the artist formerly known as the artist formerly known as prince
thanks to whomever it was who suggestd the retroactively (later rescind'd) epinonymously entitled prince record, that being, more or less, 0)+->. hadn't listened to that one in a while, and it's better than i recalld. (and for those who don't know, he had good enough, interesting reasons for his name game, tho he didn't do much to make them known.)
couldn't say that disc, even with great cuts like 'my name is prince,' '7' and 'sexy mf', is my fave. his all time best remains 'lovesexy', with honorable mention to 'come' 'the black album' '1999' 'parade' oh gosh others...
a really, really nice one, one of his really, really best, is 'the truth' which, unfortunately, can only be had as the fourth disc in the 'crystal ball' set. the other 3 are a bunch of half-baked vamps and jams and blither.
and original poster: i'm glad you're going to the show. it'll be dead solid on it. contrary to some well-meaning menace who posted previous, he does not miss live. and keep your ears open for the after set. you'll have to pay through the nose, and it'll be worth it.
content: like jz, p does himself no favors in the public eye by refusing to explain his motives in the media. be it name changes or pictures of young asian women, an artist can't always get the argument out without the help of evil journalists. i understand they don't always care about getting their reasoning to the public at large, but i think both suffer for it.
coolio,
kurtg

Most likely the Mojo piece from about 4-5 months ago; I thought I was
going to look for it last night to confirm but I got drunk too early
;-).

Hmm, I hadn't seen anyone mention "Come" before as a fave. I thought the
contractual-fulfillment albums ("Come", "The Gold Experience", and
"Chaos and Destruction") were kinda weak, though "Come" does include
one of my favorite of his tracks, "Solo".

Hmm, I don't remember anything at all about that disc -- I was
probably numbed by listening to the whole set in order :-) Now queued
in my CD player...

I did see one mediocre show, his NYC performance from the "Parade" tour,
which just didn't connect for me. I may have hit concert burnout then
though, having seen Neil Diamond (don't ask) and Meredith Monk the two
previous nights.
