I liked "Latin-Esque" quite a lot. It has the usual
easy-listening moods by Esquivel and his funny and
somehow "outer space"-arrangements. AS the title says,
the album is comprised mostly of Latin Jazz classics.
I don't have it at hand so I can't provide further
details.
BTW, the all-female chorus is priceless.
Hope it helps.

Where did you find that?! Any European TV channel or
just a video for sale in stores? (which I'd find
strange).
I'm not a Lindsay heavy-fan but video material is
always interesting.
Thanks in advance.

This may have been a re-release but The Trial definitely was released
theatrically at the time. Its US premiere was in February 1963 and it's
been available, though not easily found, ever since (I booked it for a film
society in the mid-80s, it sometimes turns up in more adventuresome video
stores and we've shown it on TCM). As Jon points out there's now a DVD,
two in fact: one from the budget company Delta and another from Image (I'm
not familiar with either release but purely on reputation I'd go with
Image).

This was about as independent as they come since it took Welles a few years
to film whenever he got enough money. Co-star Michael MacLiammoir wrote a
memoir about the production. There's a DVD of this too but it's not
entirely Welles' version since some of the music and even dialogue was
recently re-recorded to replace the original. (But then all of Welles'
films except Citizen Kane exist in multiple versions, something to keep the
critics busy.)

But this is not a director's cut. Much of what Welles specified in the
memo is still open to interpretation; even on such a basic matter as the
correct aspect ratio there's still an intense debate. Give another editor
and Welles scholar the same memo and footage and they would create yet
another version. This recreation may be as close as we'll get to Welles'
intentions but it's still not Welles' cut (the only one he was directly
involved with is the preview cut which along with the even shorter
theatrical release have all been released on video).

Subject: Year of the Snake faves
Hi y'all, here's my list of Year of the Snake favorites (regardless of
when they were released)=2E
Being much less of a consumer than some people here, for reasons of time
as much as money, this might seem short, but here goes:
CDs
Elliott Sharp: "Autar"(Zuta music)
Entirely acoustic and largely microtonal pulsating desert blues music
for guitar & 2 sumsumiyas=2E Unique=2E
Gustav Malher: Symphony n=B0 9, Chicago symph=2E conducted by Pierre Boulez
(Deutsche Grammophon)
4 large emotional mosaics matchlessly delivered=2E
"Sufi Soul" (2 CDs) (Network)
Tasteful compilation of various strands of arabo-muslim spiritual musics
by great artists, from Al-Kind=EE to Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan=2E
"D=E9ja Vu", CSN&Y (Atlantic)
For the opening 4 orgasmic minutes or so ("Carry On"), the ultimate
hippy anthem=2E
"Barbara", Volumes 2 to 7 (1960 to 1970) (Philips)
The finest flower of French chanson (IMHO), precision, intelligence and
beauty=2E
The Miles "Silent Way" sessions, while being pleasant enough,
disapointed me in exactly the same way as the Beatles "Anthology", or
the complete Hendrix "Band of Gypsies" concerts a few years ago: Teo
Macero and Miles knew what the fuck they were doing when they did what
they did, and the stuff they edited out was better edited out=2E Can you
imagine a pianist performing all of Beethoven's crossed out and altered
sketches for each sonata? What a mess and betrayal, if you love
Beethoven's work=2E Miles, the Beatles, Hendrix beautifully and flawlessly
composed their albums and to sell as their work all that went into that
creative process of choice and elimination is a denial of the artist's
integrity, IMHO=2E Interesting musicology, ok, but just that=2E
Films
"Le Fabuleux Destin d'Am=E9lie Poulain", Jean-Pierre Jeunet
Incredibly creative post-Godard cinematography (don't pay attention to
the sirupy U=2ES=2Emarketing campaign)
"Kandahar",
It's surreal, except it's real=2E Beautiful & does'nt tell you how to
feel=2E
Hitchcock's "Shadow of a Doubt" (whatever happened to Teresa Wright?
wow=2E=2E=2E)
"I Confess" (for Monty Clift)
"Stage Fright" (sensational evil Marlene Dietrich)
"Rear Window"
Erich von Stroheim's "Foolish Wives"(1922)
(as sexually and socially incorrect as it gets)
I thought the first half of "Mulholland Drive" was very promising, but
that it failed to deliver this promise, relying a little bit too lazily
on the "Vertigo" tricks which already made up a large part of "Lost
Highway"=2E Hey, don't lynch me!!! "Blue Velvet" and "Wild at Heart" are 2
of my all-time faves!!!

Hi,
I saw "Simply Are..." over christmas on a channel
called Muzzik.
It's a french documentary on the last Arto tour in these
parts (end of 2000? can't even remember when that was, I saw
him in Zurich).
The french subtitles are terrible (but, mercifully, it's just english
spoken), and unless you are a total fan and/or aware of=20
Patrice's discography, you can get terribly bored/lost.=20
People who are interviewed are not introduced, and=20
I can only _suppose_ that the footage with DNA and Arto
has to do with the recent movie on Basquiat which I haven't seen.
Apparently Arto is overdubbing himself hitting into Basquiat
on the street.=20
Here the details:
- -------------------------------------------------------------------
??? - SIMPLY ARE...: Sarah Teper
French, 2001, 55 minutes, live 2000 + interviews=20
in France, in a (british?) pub, NY rehearsals, in Bahia with
Caetano Veloso.
Crap subtitles: Defunked for Defunkt, Reed for Greed,
Peter Share for Peter Scherer..
Tracks (didn't bother to check spellings, from the last few albums):
unsure, it has only to happen once, Amina, Animale?, re-entry,=20
simply are, enxugar, noon chill, o nono bela, 9 out of 10, podeficar,=20
ondina, amantes, unbearable, gods are weak, whirlwind
- -------------------------------------------------------------------
So while we're at it:
somebody mentioned "Ecomixes" by Arto as a best of 2001.=20
How long has this been out and how is it and what are the details?

In late November, Erstwhile Records released two CDs, one of which featured
a duo of Boston-based musicians Greg Kelley & Jason Lescalleet, the other a
duo of Italian musicians Giuseppe Ielasi & Domenico Sciajno. To celebrate the
release of these CDs, the two duos will be doing a series of CD release
performances in New York City, Baltimore, Boston, and Amherst.
This event will consist of performances by both duos, each of which will
utilize real-time
transformation of sonic materials. Lescalleet's primary means are
reel-to-reel tape recorders, contact microphones and speakers which he uses
to sculpt textural soundscapes, using layers of tape loops and primitive
sampling (in this case, of Kelley's trumpet). In the case of the Italian duo,
Sciajno will be using a laptop computer and some specially modified
electronics in combination w/ Ielasi's electric lap steel guitar and
electronics. This will mark the North
American premiere of Ielasi's work.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
GREG KELLEY, trumpet, has performed throughout the United States, Europe and
Japan and has gained a reputation as one of the most innovative trumpet
players in improvised music. He has worked w/ Keiji Haino, Pauline Oliveros,
and Anthony Braxton, among
others.
www.geocities.com/greyelkgel
JASON LESCALLEET, tape loops & computer, has been an active member of the New
England noise & electronic music scenes for the better part of a decade. He
has worked w/ many of the world's prominent sound artists including Francisco
Lopez, Achim Wollscheid, and John Hudak.

GIUSEPPE IELASI, guitar & electronics, is the founder of Fringes Recordings
and has been involved in Europe's new improvised music scene since the late
80's working w/ Dean Roberts, Brandon LaBelle, and Jerome Noetinger, as well
as doing a lot of work w/ theater groups and radio.

DOMENICO SCIAJNO, electronics, started out as a bass player, but has since
devoted himself entirely to electronics. He has worked w/ Alvin Curran, Le
Quan Ninh, and Ellen Christi, as well as w/ dance groups, theater, and work
as an installation artist.

_______________________________________________________
I've seen The Trial two years ago, and is one of my
favourite Welles films ,the strange connection of the
worlds of Kafka and Welles is marvelous.
For me all Welles' films are masterpieces, except
Othello and Macbeth ,two good films but the technic is
a deliberate copy of Eisenstein. The caotic filming of
Othello are very interesting:Welles filmmed some
scenes with the filming team of The Black Rose (Henry
King),another scenes in Italy and Morocco, but for
legal troubles the film was nationalized in EUA.During
making this film makes some other projects. Finally
three years for finish the film. The most difficult
was join all the actors at the same place and the same
time.
Welles starts many projects, but the independence on
his work makes impossible to finnish it. And some of
this material was great. In a retrospective of Welles
I could seen some of this:a series of absolutely
comical shorts about towns of Europe like Vienna or
London, an spectacular short of Moby Dick with Orson
reciting fragments from the novel, a documentary film
of Brazil, and an incredible magic show (with the
magician Welles obviously), and some strange tv shows.
If someone can see this material some day I
recommended it, all is great.
Sorry for my bad english(this e-mail is a difficult
exercise for me)and regards for everyone.
Ricardo.
