Subject: Re: recent frequent plays
Here's the things that have been occupying my time lately, some new, some old:
Barry Guy New Orchestra -- Inscape - Tableaux (great album, though I can't help comparing it to the LJCO albums, and noticing the lack of power that the smaller ensemble has)
Bill Dixon -- Berlin Abozzi (does Dixon use any electronic manipulation of his horn? at times it sounds like it, but I feel it may just be marvelous technique)
MIMEO -- Electric Chair & Table (what can I say?)
Berlin Contemporary Jazz Orchestra - Live in Japan (beautiful stuff, though I'm still having a hard time believing that the first tenor solo is Gerd Dudek and not Evan Parker)
John Butcher (w/ D. Bailey & R. Davies) -- Vortices and Angels (the Bailey duet is especially fine -- one of the most quick witted duets I've heard; the Davies half is also quite good, though very different)
Butcher/Dorner/Charles -- The Contest of Pleasures (an oddly low key performance from these guys which I am still trying to figure out. Fascinating, and completely unexpected)
Chadbourne/Bennink -- 21 Years Later (probably would have been an amazing concert; as a recording, it is...intriguing)
T-Bone Burnett -- self titled (an old favorite which seems to have taken up permanent residence in my car. There's something magical about a hot and dry summer and this album of smartly arranged pseudo bluegrass that inspires long drives into the mountains)

Subject: Phantomas on Zwei....
I saw a special on Phantomas here in Germany last
night, it was from last summer and seemed very Naked
Cities influenced, but was very good, I'd recommend
seeing it if it comes on again...for those of you who
don't know Zwei is kinda like M2 only it don't suck so
much, like you can see an hour long Phantomas special
there and such....
also I'm currently in Dresden Germany for a long time
on buisness, if anyone can give me some hints as to
bands/clubs to check out (within a couple of hours)I'd
Any mailing list / newsgroup / website you'd recommend ?
Thanks for your help.

Actually I think it was a month or two ago that he quit; I remembering seeing it on their website not too recently. A couple of them live here in Philadelphia and are friends of friends. Through this I've heard that its likely, or at least possible, that they'll just break up. Who knows?

Agreed. I like lots of them. I don't know what you have, but the Caution Appears is great probably my favorite next to I Saw It!... The drums are higher in the mix than they sometimes are. I always mix up the names, but the relases on the Tokuma label are all good. You really need to write down the catalog numbers though, as they all look identical otherwise. You get find them on Forced Exposure.

It's a quartet, as stated above. Bendian strictly on vibes and he
also writes everything. Bendian's great on vibes, it sounds like he's
using really hard mallets and gets an aggressive tone. Nels Cline, of
course, is brilliant, and I think this is just about his best playing
in a jazz context since some of the stuff he did with Vinny Golia
years ago. Alex Cline sounds great also, and is perhaps a more
appropriate drummer for this context than Bendian, being a looser,
more swinging player. This disc is dedicated to the comic artist Jack
Kirby, and the package uses his art really nicely. It's a 70 minute
disc that doesn't wear out its welcome, a rare thing.
