This is a reply to the question about if the drummer on the new Bowie
album is our friend Joey Baron.
Actually, I dont know but I have just returned from the library with a
copy of the Monk tribute album "Thats The Way I Feel". On that there is a
tune with John Scofield where the drums is played by Joey Barron. So i
guess that Joey Baron and Joey Barron is the same guy.

While I was in Japan last week, I got to speak with
Eye and he told me about his new name Yamantaka. He
said that while he and Zorn were touring China this
past spring, that John gave him his new surname,
Yamantaka. He said that if you read the kanji it
literally means Mountain Hawk.
Knowing Eye, both stories could be true.
Then again, maybe he got tired of everyone mispronouncing
his last name. :)
Jonas sez:
>BTW When did Zorn start calling himself Dekoboto Hajime? Does it mean
>anything or is it just a name?
Also according to Eye:
John was given the new name by Yamantaka-san. Eye said
that Zorn's name (Dekoboko Hajime) translates to three
kanji characters meaning "up", "down", and "steady" (at
least that was my best understanding given Eye's english
vocabulary and my even more limited Japanese skills).

There is a very detailed discography of Wayne Horvitz on the WNUR jazz web
site:
http://www.nwu.edu/WNUR/jazz/
Wayne Horvitz' records under his name can be classified as follows:
EARLY STUFF (hard to find):
--------------------------
001 - NO PLACE FAST: Wayne Horvitz (1979 - Theatre For Your Mother, TFYM 001)
003 - CASCANDO & WORDS & MUSIC: Wayne Horvitz (1979 - Theatre For Your Mother,
TFYM 003)
007 - SIMPLE FACTS: Wayne Horvitz (1981 - Theatre For Your Mother, TFYM 004)
008 - RADIOPLAY: Wayne Horvitz (1979 - Theatre For Your Mother, TFYM 006)
TRIOS WITH BUTCH MORRIS:
-----------------------
014 - SOME ORDER, LONG UNDERSTOOD: Wayne Horvitz (1983 - Black Saint, BSR
0059)
029 - NINE BELOW ZERO: Wayne Horvitz, Butch Morris, Robert Previte (1987 -
Sound Aspects, sas 014)
037 - TODOS SANTOS: Wayne Horvitz, Butch Morris, and Robert Previte play the
music of Robin Holcomb (1988 - Sound Aspects, sas 019)
RECORDS WITH THE PRESIDENT:
--------------------------
020 - DINNER AT EIGHT: Wayne Horvitz (1986 - Dossier Records, ST 7514)
024 - THE PRESIDENT: Wayne Horvitz (1987 - Dossier, ST 7528 (LP))
025 - THIS NEW GENERATION: Wayne Horvitz (1987 - Elektra Musician, 9 60759-2)
046 - BRING YR CAMERA: The President (1989 - Elektra/Musician, 9 60799-2)
065 - MIRACLE MILE: Wayne Horvitz The President (1992 - Elektra, 9 79278-2)
RECORDS WITH THE NEW YORK COMPOSERS ORCHESTRA:
---------------------------------------------
057 - THE NEW YORK COMPOSERS ORCHESTRA (1990 - New World, NW397-2)
064 - FIRST PROGRAM IN STANDARD TIME: The New York Composers Orchestra
(1992 - New World, 80418-2)
RECORDS WITH PIGPEN:
-------------------
072 - HALFRACK: Pigpen (1993 - Tim/Kerr, TK92CD047)
074 - PIGPEN (1993 - Cavity Search, CSR8 (33 RPM 7"))
083 - V AS IN VICTIM: Pigpen (1994 - Avant, Avan 027)
084 - MISS ANN: Wayne Horvitz and Pigpen (1994 - Tim/Kerr, tk93cd069)
080 - LIVE IN POLAND: Wayne Horvitz & Pigpen (1995 - Cavity Search (CSR 22))
MISCELLANEOUS:
-------------
022 - VOODOO: The Sonny Clark Memorial Quartet (1986 - Black Saint, BSR 0109)
The Sonny Clark Memorial Quartet was Horvitz' project, and not Zorn's as
many thought.
Comments about the above list?
If you are into improvisation, you should check 014 and 029
I would have a hard time to say what President is the best. Maybe a best
first choice would be 025 (which includes most of 020 and part of 024).
Concerning the Pigpen? Both Tim/Kerr are great and 080 gives you the
opportunity to hear the band live (contrary to The President, Pigpen is
at his best live). 083 is also excellent, maybe quieter and slightly
less energetic.
Both NY Composers Orchestra are must-have for people interested in
big bands and modern jazz. It is not often that a big band takes his
repertoire from composers such as Braxton, Sharp, Previte, etc.

I cannot disagree with you Phil! Ned is of course one of the most interesting
musicians from this scene. In fact I have done his discography and still
wonder why I have not already posted it...
In fact I have forgotten many others, such as:
Arto Lindsay
Anthony Coleman
Bobby Previte
Marty Ehrlich
Christian Marclay
Ikue Mori
Joey Baron
Mark Dresser
David Shea
Thomas Chapin
and many more, I know

-Subject: Avant catalogue request
I'd like to thank Patrice for posting the TZADIK catalogue back in digest
#92. That helped me a lot with my CD ordering.
So, now that we have a TZADIK catalogue, does anyone have a listing for all
the disks out on AVANT so far?
It seems like things have come to a stop on the label ever since TZADIK
started up. This is too bad since it was a good place for "one shot"
releases that didn't need to fit into a specific catagory...
Anyway, thanks in advance for any information, and thanks to the powers that
be for running this list. It's the "one stop shop" for Zorn information!

-Subject: upcoming releases on Tzadik
Just got some information concerning upcoming releases on Tzadik
that might interest some of you:
Out in November:
TERMINAL PHARMACY: Jim O'Rourke (music for strings)
FINGER LIGHT: Yuji Takahashi
???: Makigami Koichi (vocal solo)
???: Harry Parch
DEATH AMBIENT: F. Frith, I. Mori, H. Kato
That's all for this year (30 records, and most of them on schedule, not
bad!).
The three 2xLP on Parachute (SCHOOL, POOL, and ARCHERY) will be reissued as
a 3xCD set early next year. Both THE CLASSIC GUIDE TO STRATEGY VOL. 1 & 2
will be reissued as one CD, also early next year.
HARRAS, a Derek Bailey record with Zorn and William Parker is now planned
on Tzadik (it was supposed to be out on Knitting Factory Works). No idea
about the release date (not this year, for sure).
Concerning the Masada's on Tzadik, two are still planned next year, which
will be chosen among the three following ones:
LIVE IN JERUSALEM: Masada
LIVE AT MOGADOR: Masada
???: Chamber Masada (Masada + Mark Feldman + John Medeski +
Greg Cohen + Erik Friedlander)
A funny anecdote concerning the Mystic Fugu Orchestra. John Zorn had in mind
initially to release multiple... 78RPM!!! When he realized that there was no
manufacturing plants left to produce such records, he gave up (fortunately
for us: where the hell can we find a 78RPM turntable these days?). Knowing
the sound quality of ZOHAR, it is not such a surprising story :-).
Patrice.
