A wonderfully jarring 2 sets of live Arto Lindsay Trio material(over an hour and a half of music!) are currently available on the Dutch radio web site "Is Dit Nog Wel Jazz?" It's a HUGE trio with Melvin Gibbs and Micah Gaugh. I can't recommend it enough - Most of the material seems to be from the last two or three records. Bosa nova with feedback, beatbox, synthisizer, and all kinds of sonic surprises. http://www.vpro.nl/programma/isditnogweljazz/afleveringen/17106387/ http://www.vpro.nl/programma/isditnogweljazz/afleveringen/17106198/ And, hey everybody, don't miss this live performance of about 45 minutes of "Napolli's Walls" by Louis Sclavis' quartet on the BBC Radio 3's "Jazz on 3" show. If you haven't heard this guy yet, hold onto your hat! Bass clarinet gone amok! This one is only available until Friday... http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio3/jazz/jon3/jon3.shtml?focuswin Finally, have any of you New York folks heard the New York New Music Ensemble? They just played here on Maui Saturday night; some really exciting pieces - Arthur Kreiger, Shostakovich, and Jacob Druckman, among others - a jolt of lightning in an otherwise dull tourist-friendly easy listening music scene. It was the last show of a world tour, apparently. Hana hou! (Encore!) Sated, Nad NP: Prince's "N.E.W.S." - yes!!! Every time I get weary of the little devil, he's throws something like this out, and I'm hooked again.
