hello all, was checking out this reviewhttp://www.pitchforkmedia.com/record-reviews/a/area/revolution.shtml I really tend to want to pick up anything that this guy reviews, a nice departure from the mainstream of pitchfork writers. Can anyone second Area as essential to pick up? I am not a prog freak, but I do appreciate drawing on lots of music, I never listen to lyrics either. Just wondering if I should drop the 40+ bucks on this box set. thanks jay __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.

composer biographies
by Lang Thompson 01 Feb '03

01 Feb '03

OK, recommendation time again. I'm looking biographies of classical composers but want ones with a "life and times" approach rather than detailed chronology and musical analysis. Ones that might, say, discuss the structure of organs in Bach's time or how the cantata developed more than the names of his children. Something like Barzun's Berlioz and His Century or the section on Satie in Shattuck's The Banquet Years. Any era, any remotely recognizable composer but at the moment I'm especially interested in Bach, Chopin, Satie (again), Sibelius and Stravinsky. Suggestions? Thanks, Lang

i wouldn't expect the cobra line-up to be publicized ahead of time. at least, that's zorn's usual practice. but word is electric masada will be there, so he'll have some familiar folks on hand. and ribot a few months ago ruled an entire piece, with jz smilin' and applaudin'. never seen anyone hold control beginning to end in a cobra before. jamie saft should also be around - and he gets cobra like no one under however old he is... _________________________________________________________________ STOP MORE SPAM with the new MSN 8 and get 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail

Chadbourne and Jimi Hendrix
by Arthur Gadney 31 Jan '03

31 Jan '03

Hello, I was wondering if Eugene Chadbourne's Jimi Hendrix project with Pat Thomas and Jimmy Carl Black is any good. Pretty interesting lineup, but there's so many Chadbourne projects out there, so... Anybody heard the CD or seen them live? Thanks! _________________________________________________________________ MSN 8 helps eliminate e-mail viruses. Get 2 months FREE*. http://join.msn.com/?page=features/virus

Hi! >I just verified Peter Stubley's web site, and yes, this is a reissue >of the early 80's LP that was sold with a bonus 7". > >And according to DMG, this is already available!!! Sure! I bought it almost a month ago. And lets all prey for more ICP reissues...! BTW, anybody know where I can get a copy of "Oh My Dog"? That went out of print so damn fast, I blinked and it was gone. _________________________________________________________________ Add photos to your e-mail with MSN 8.

Then I'm waiting as well!! >Now I am wondering if this DIW reissue >is the one of the LP with a bonus 7" (and if yes, if the 7" is >included on the CD). There is two bonus tracks on the new reissue.
