RE: (TV) Frisell

[Maurice Rickard <maurice@mac.com>]

It took a while for me to "get" Frisell's playing.  What put it over 
for me was the harder side of his work, particularly with John Zorn's 
Naked City (Joey Baron on drums, and another Seattlite, Wayne Horvitz 
on keys).  _Radio_ is a fantastic introduction to that band for the 
uninitiated.  There's an extensive review of it on AMG, actually...

Even more astonishing are the recordings I've heard of the very last 
Naked City shows.  Man, I'd love to hear those whole sets.  An 
amazingly tight band with a mastery of just about every genre.
