Re: Henry Hills/Naked City Video at Canyon Cinema

How long is that tape, 5 minutes? :) AVG ------- Date: Tue, 4 Mar 2003 22:57:34 -0800 From: Jim Flannery <newgrange(a)talmanassociates.com> Subject: Henry Hills/Naked City Video at Canyon Cinema Henry Hills THE NAKED CITY SERIES Contains "Gotham", "Igneous Ejaculation" and "Osaka Bondage" GOTHAM is a music video commissioned by Elektra Records to the Naked City song "Batman". Naked City is John Zorn (alto), Bill Frissell (guitar), Wayne Horvitz (keyboards), Fred Frith (bass), Joey Baron (drums), and Yamatsuka Eye (vocals). Taking the band's name and first album cover as a clue, I drew heavily on themes in WeeGee's photographs (his major collection, Naked City, inspired the title of Jules Dassin's great 50's film noir classic which inspired the TV show of the same name, of which I obtained and employed a portion of an episode), recreating many of his pictures in their actual Lower East Side/Little Italy locations (a rare home movie shot of WeeGee--smoking a cigar--is also included.) I shot much of the footage on grainy 4X and transferred off a workprint which I intentionally scratched up, to give an archival appearance. I also included some archival footage (special thanks to Bill McCahey), both Hollywood gangster movie outtakes and documentary excerpts (including actual morgue shots of John Dillinger--note the fly buzzing around his nose--and Baby-Face Nelson--with the police pointing out the fatal gunshot entry points.) IGNEOUS EJACULATION, my second Naked City video, was made as a gift to John Zorn who felt that Elektra's choice of a song to represent the group was too conservative. This was during his hardcore period and I wanted to give him something hardcore. Starring Desiree Costeau in her most overflowing performance. Named one of the Ten Best Films of the Year (1995) by the San Francisco Bay Guardian. OSAKA BONDAGE was conceived and commissioned by John Zorn as the second Naked City video. Composed from imagery from Zorn's extensive "Roman Porn" video collection.

Hi! >I have to agree with Alastair, I didn't think Knead >was all that exciting. Perhaps. But most be one hell of a live show, seeing those three on stage at the same time! >Any word on the Zorn Documentary DVD? Just to put together two threads. Yoshida from Ruins just released two DVDs: V.A.: "Let's Dance with Irregular Rhythms" (featuring RUINS/Pochakaite Marko/Aburadako/Cicala Mvta) Koenji Hyakkei: "Live" >Top 5 favorite Ruins albums...

Favorite horn duos
by mwisckol＠ocregister.com 06 Mar '03

06 Mar '03

A parlor game poll: Who are your favorite 1-2 horn duos of all time? Rules: 1. Email me (not the list) your choices by March 14. I'll tally them and post final results on the list. 2. For the sake of interest, let's create a hall of fame with Bird/Diz, Ornette/Cherry, Miles/Trane, Miles/Shorter, Sims/Cohn, and Jug/Stitt -- and say you can't pick these guys. They're obvious and recognized choices, and I'd like the Zorn poll to examine a deeper layer. 3. Each participant has five points to distribute as you please. Sample ballots: Steve Lacy/Steve Potts - 5 -or- Braxton/Geo. Lewis -- 3 Tim Berne/Dave Sanborn -- 1 Rahsaan Roland Kirk/ Rahsaan Roland Kirk -- 1 -or- King Oliver/Louis Armstrong -- 1 Clifford Brown/Sonny Rollins -- 1 Eric Dolphy/Booker Little -- 1 Wayne Shorter/ Lee Morgan -- 1 Lester Bowie/Jimmy Lyons -- 1

Any similar advice on Fukuoka? Tosh <tosh3(a)earthlink.net> To: zorn-list(a)mailman.xmission.com Sent by: cc: zorn-list-admin(a)mailman.x Subject: Tokyo record store mission.com 06/03/03 14:34 Great record vinyl stores in Shinjuku. Get off to the East side of the Shinjuku station and head towards your left. You will go under the train tracks and come across a major street. Just go down and follow the signs on the street. There are zillions of little record stores. Most of them are in office buildings - so don't hesitate to investigate these somewhat 'seedy' buildings. Also fun and amusing 'sex' shops too! Have a great record store hunt!

Tokyo, Singapore
by Julien Quint 06 Mar '03

06 Mar '03

Hi all, I moved to Tokyo a few months ago, and I'm still looking for a good record store. I could find lots of interesting stuff in Tower, Disk Union and other big chain stores; however I'm looking for places more like Other Music, Aquarius, DMG, etc. I'm especially interested into vinyl. Any advice? I'm also going to Singapore for a few days, I think records will be cheaper there, so pointers about this place are also welcome. Thanks in advance -- Julien
