Let me know if the sound is good enough to hear a 7-year old near the stage.

Every year that we've gone to it, we've thought it was a good mix of performers. It was just frustrating trying to get to everything in only 4 days. Still, we averaged 1 to 2 days worth of listening in such a short time each year. I also think that they try to bring these performers to a more centralized, less hectic, part of the country. It's why you won't find my wife or I going to that "Long Play" festival no matter who shows up.

It's not music. It's the soundtrack to a fish market in the 4th dimension. Lovely.

Did it rectify your need for bass?

What are your feelings on Mitch Miller?

Many are available thru something called “Learn Out Loud” as downloads. I remember quite a few being free. I got hooked on a lot of those LPs tho - and we used to distribute that label at the place I worked at, so it was fun to hear the variety.

“McCallum did not sing on these records, as many television stars of the 1960s did when offered recording contracts. As a classically trained musician, he conceived a blend of oboe, cor anglais, and strings with guitar and drums, and presented instrumental interpretations of hits of the day. The official arranger on the albums was H. B. Barnum. However, McCallum conducted, and contributed several original compositions of his own, over the course of four LPs. The first two, Music...A Part of Me and Music...A Bit More of Me, have been issued together on CD on the Zonophone label. On Open Channel D, McCallum did sing on the first four tracks, "Communication", "House on Breckenridge Lane", "In the Garden, Under the Tree" (the theme song from the film Three Bites of the Apple), and "My Carousel". The music tracks are the same as the Zonophone CD. This CD was released on the Rev-Ola label. The single release of "Communication" reached No. 32 in the UK Singles Chart in April 1966.”

Mine too.

I applaud him that he uses his genuine interests as springboards for new works whether they're singular pieces or larger concepts. I also like that he attempts to demonstrate that Jewish music isn’t just klezmer - a century and a half old form created by Ashkenazi Jews, but that you have other distinctive forms from places like Syria, Yemen, Egypt, and so on. Saying that, I find a kind of New York arrogance with a forced “hipness” that’s pretty off-putting to me, but I’ve dealt with him only on just a few projects and that was enough.

Yes, but for those who just might be familiar, they could very possibly be a form of Gematria known as Albath which are used to create the compositional structure of each piece. There is a reason, for example, why there are 613 Masada pieces specifically named as references to the 613 Mitzvot.

Friday is October 6. Also, I posted this to give relevant info and to point out their dismissal of the questions they were asked.

John Zorn Homenaje A Remedios Varo

Kinda strange to hear them do 8 minute versions of "Bags' Groove" and "All Blues" ...but then again, people are strange...
