Naked City's, Leng Tch'e - now that's some masochistic music if I've heard it. Love to hear that played live? > Kind of a masochistic listen all the way through...

Hi; I wrote a message yesterday and there's been 4 or 5 digests since then. I received a mail saying that my post was being processed because it had more lenght than the usual permitted and that either i'd receive a notification or it would be included. May i write two messages with the original one to get them shorter or will it appear? Thanks in advanced and sorry to adress to you directly. Rafa Ibanez, --------------------------------- Yahoo!

I am a huge fan of Ascenseur pour I'échafaud (Lift to the Scaffold) as a film as well as the soundtrack. Great music. I strongly suggest that people on this list get the soundtrack. -- Tosh Berman TamTam Books http://www.tamtambooks.com

Most of "Big Fun" -- if not all -- is taken from the Bitches Brew sessions. Just found this out. Of course, the vinyl version doesn't have any dates or musicians listed...dad-blame-it. And anyone who's interested in checking out that french flick in english, the title you can find it under is "Elevator to the Gallows". It's one of them new wave crime flicks, directed by Louis Malle. Speaking of beatnik jazz soundtracks, one that surprised me not too long ago was when I saw Cassavettes' "Shadows". Who do I hear but Charlie Mingus swaggering across the soundtrack. But who plays bass clarinet on the "Witchcraft Through the Ages" soundtrack that W S Burroughs narrates? --bob p >From: "Bruno N" <fortytwos(a)hotmail.com> >To: thegrandguignol(a)yahoo.com, zorn-list(a)mailman.xmission.com >Subject: Re: Electric Miles: Agartha and Pangaea/golden quartet >Date: Thu, 16 Jan 2003 23:38:26 +0000 > >So, everyone has mentioned some great electric Miles Davis albums. >However, there are a couple more you should considering adding to your >Miles collection - > >"Get Up With It" >"Big Fun" > >Those two will definitely blow your mind.

Okay, I'll be the first to admit, using smooth, and miles in the same sentence is such a jazz faux pas! I was just trying to convey his mood/sound/tone which melted beautifully out of my speaker when I happened to put on "Ascenseur Pour l'echafaud". I would never in my life begin to draw a comparision between, what we understand, to be "smooth" in this day in age, against Miles Davis. No need for a debate there, wouldn't you agree? Miles played cool. Most of today's corporate jazz players just play, smooth... yawn. >From: "Zachary Steiner" <zsteiner(a)butler.edu> >To: <zorn-list(a)mailman.xmission.com> >Subject: RE: Electric Miles: Agartha and Pangaea/golden quartet >Date: Fri, 17 Jan 2003 08:22:37 -0500 > > >> Anybody remember Miles asking "Why are they always comparing me to >Wynton?

Matt G & the other Zorn-heads. I've the 2nd W.L.Smith's Golden Quartet and i think that's better than the first. More focused, and Smith is showing how much he is influenced by Miles. Great playing by all. very recommended.
