Re: (TV) Kral comments



Cliff--

Thanks for passing those questions on! It was interesting to get a little glimpse into the band, guests, and producers. Good job.

I've been quiet because, well, I've been working on a huge project for demo this week. Imagine for a moment a team of three people programming the entire mechanism for customizable online services...in under a month. Pardon my venting. I also owe people comments on the mpegs up on the tribute site, and haven't had a chance to get it together.

Maybe it's time for another "what are you listening to" thread. I've been getting through the work crunch with mpegs of live Naked City (John Zorn, Bill Frisell, Fred Frith, Wayne Horvitz, Joey Baron, and Yamataka Eye on screams)--particularly a moving cover of the theme from _Rosemary's Baby_ (believe it or not) and a fantastic over-the-top version of "NY Flat Top Box." And I'll say that while I haven't connected with Frisell's playing in the past, I'm totally grooving on his stuff with Zorn, particularly the live NC. He's a hell of a lot more versatile than I'd thought.

I've also been digging mid-period Karate (http://www.southern.com/southern/band/KARAT/disc.html)--check out the mp2s from _Karate_ and _In Place of Real Insight_. (The most recent, from _The Bed Is in the Ocean_, is a little too faux-jazzy for my taste.) And Geoff Farina's earlier solo stuff too. (http://www.southern.com/southern/band/GFRIA/disc.html)

Back to work (yes, work),
Maurice



Is the list down or has it gone deadly quiet. I've not received
anything since 4th May and that was my posting of Kral comments.
