7/4

Dancing a jig yet? *

I wish I could have caught this. I did see some Bfefck tunes on YouTube the day after the performance. .

I say drop it...sorry I can't donate, hard times 4 me now. .

Q&A isn't on ECM!!!

It would be easier to make a list of artists I like on ECM, but I'm on my way out for dinner now. .

A lot different than my top 10, what ever that might be. I like the Torn, but there's so many ECM albums I love that it would be more like a top 30-50. Conference of the Birds most certainly belongs there. A couple of those I've never even heard.

Yeah man...and he was doing it long before Kiss and Aerosmith.

I love his bowed solos on those Dolphy era albums...microtonal! Not by design. I always thought it was maybe 24tet/quartertonal by design. Oh well...works for me.

Miroslav Vitous, I've been listening to these during the holiday.

I remember the pigs and the movies on the round screen during Wish You Were Here and Dark Side of the Moon. I was 17. !

They don't light fireworks at shows anymore? Happened all the time at rock shows back then. I heard an audience recording of the only PF show I went to at MSG, NYC in July '77 and it brought back memories of fireworks going off, followed by boos. Even at the time I thought it was unusual for a Floyd show, even though it happened at all the other shows I went to. .

Too bad the thread isn't called the bowed upright bass - arco, so down thread readers/posters know what it's all about.

As a bassist yourself your enthusiasm is understandable , but a 2-and-a-half-hour solo bass album strikes me as an indulgence not likely to be granted by many non-musician jazz fans . Sounds interesting to me! I remember getting Dave Holland's Emerald Tears when I was a kid and being just blown away. Ones All, his other solo bass album was nice, but didn't have the same effect. 2 1/2 hours of bowed bass might be a bit much.

A few meals in one. !

Sounds like a decent price. .

Eberhard Weber! *

Even Wikipedia says:

Pressed Rat and Warthog. :rsmile:

There's one near me in a strip mall. Their Jazz section is quite thin, but I stop in if I'm in the the neighborhood in case they have something used, cheap and interesting. *

Edgard Varèse, The present day composers get shirts! *

They're sweet, but pricey. There's vintage steels around here, I just have my cheap plank and I'm not really playing it anyway. I was in Sam Ash a month ago and a guy was trying out amps with a '36 Rick steel made of Bakelite. We were talking and I never realized that Bakelite is plastic...he even had a plastic slide. * It's arpeggio day at my place with the Gibson L6-S.

Cool lookin' steel guitars alert! tompettingill steel guitars. .

Stories by Bukowski are a blast, I should re-read this one. .
