yes, there are really some nice recordings with Hutcherson.
My favorite is "firebirds" of Prince Lasha with Sonny Simmons (Sept.1967)
(on Contemporary) where Hutcherson does some of his best jobs IMO. Also the
Eric Dolphy Sessions with Lasha and Simmons (July 1963) features Hutcherson
and are amazing, too.

Hello Again,
Another question for the list. The various artist compilation on rastacan records "Yearbook Vol.2" contains a piece by John Zorn Ensemble. Has this piece been released before on something else?
Thanks,
Andrew

to further elaborate:
as i recall, it was just after the Arkestra had moved to NY. Pat Patrick
had been there already a couple years and was playing in some latin jazz
combo. To help the newly arrived ARkestra members get established, Gilmore
was invited to sit in. Gilmore said he didn't really know how to play with
latin music, so he played against it. just as almost everyone in the crowd
was scratching their head, wondering if Gilmore could actually play,
Coltrane apparently came running up yelling "JOhn Gilmore, you GET it!" at
least that's my recollection of the story from Szwed's book.

absolutely.

That story has been widely circulated, and never by John Gilmore, so I
believe it to be true. I doubt that it was a fictional or even apocryphal
account, and, frankly, Gilmore is, for my money, every bit as fantastic as
Trane, Wayne, Sonny, Joe, or anyone else.

Subject: Haneke
La Pianiste is an excellent film, far better than Haneke's earlier
efforts. If you like Funny Games and Code Inconnu, you'll probably like
his earlier stuff like The Seventh Continent or Benny's Video,
characterized by the same virtuosic technique, bitterness, and hatred
towards the audience. With La Pianiste he finally puts some of his ideas
to work instead of stifling them with blind rage/angst.

Hartley is pretty well-known in America. "Henry Fool" was sold out when it
opened in Chicago.
I've seen "Henry Fool", "Flirt", and "Amateur", and while I enjoyed them I
never really understood some of the Hartley worship I've encountered. And
even harder to understand was an ex-girlfriend's infatuation with Martin
Donovan...
(and what's with the annoying scores?)
