My only beef with this is that Shakira does indeed rock. But you guys knew that. Steve Smith ssmith36(a)sprynet.com NP - Somei Satoh, 'Burning Meditation' - SEM/Kotik (Mutable) (... perhaps this piece would have been more appropriate for the CD-R thread?)

RE: Zorn and "An Open Letter of American Jews to Our Government"?
by Oppenheim, Phil 05 Dec '02

As my old profs used to point out, etymologically speaking "radical" connotes "rootedness" -- perhaps that's the meaning Zorny is aiming for? More importantly, how the hell can I get my hands on a copy of "Bagels and Bongos"??!!

And anyway, what's wrong with just "New Jewish"? It's not called the "Radical Japanese Culture"-series afterall. _________________________________________________________________ The new MSN 8: advanced junk mail protection and 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail

Dave Douglas' interview tetchiness
by William Crump 05 Dec '02

05 Dec '02

I read Douglas' interruptions as "We may be working with a partial language barrier here. Please don't rephrase what I'm saying in order to understand it better, but rather, work harder to understand it AS I SAID IT." The irony of my trying to interpret what he said is not lost on me. William Crump > >>I don't find it easy to figure out what he means, >>basically. (Not only >>with >>respect to radical jewish culture). Plus some not >>overly kind moves >>towards >>Efrén and some boastful fits... an odd performance. > > Yeah, an odd performance to say the least. I really > didn't seem to understand him either, but in some > aspects we agreed. However, due to those interruptions > Douglas wouldn't let me get to the point where those > agreements showed up. A pity.

HELL, yeah. Did they have the common decency to actually publish this kick in the nads, or is it circulating by other means? There is no difference between Rolling Stone and People. How many years since it's actually been a music magazine? Wm.

I thought it was a >good opportunity to clarify some of them but I felt >that wasn't the way to go, at least with Douglas. As far as I remember, Anthony Coleman mentions in the "Sabbath In Paradise" documentary, that part of Jewish character is "asking questions without expecting answers". Perhaps the whole RJC has to be seen in that light.

hey, don't forget that JAZZIZ did at least two Zorn interviews and that magazine is like Downbeat Lite! At least Downbeat pretty much covers what it claims to cover. Overall, There is usually less coverage on fringe or not easily classifiable artists like Zorn. I'm actually more disgusted with New York's VILLAGE VOICE which claims to cover the downtown art scene and they gush over Britney Spears and Eminem constantly! In my opinion, that's even more of sell-out than ROLLING STONE.

Excellent letter. I gave up on Rolling Stone several years ago as I found they wrote about very little I was interested in. They are indeed nothing more than a pop fashion magazine. Gary
