FW: Simplicity
by skip Heller 08 Apr '03

08 Apr '03

Simplicity is kind of a relative thing. Could Stravinsky have made the point he was after in the Rite Of Spring as effectively if he had done it with less notes in the harmony and less polymetrical content? Probably not. On the other hand, statistical density doesn't assure quality. There's lot of of really crappy stuff that happens to be complex. The idea that complexity assures quality is about as accurate as saying simpler music is less good than music that makes its point with less notes and more tracable beats. Of course, if you're the type who associates "complex" with "challenging", you're likely not to understand that saying what you have to say in the most direct manner possible is the best way. You probably want the stuff to be as obscure as possible in the hopes that it will add to your ability to get you intellectual on. But it will forever deny you the pleasures of "Have Love, Will Travel" by Richard berry and the Pharoahs. skip h np: beau hunks SAXOPHONE SOC-TETTE

NZ: Bollywood
by Matt Laferty 08 Apr '03

08 Apr '03

Say friends, I have to say that I just watched the 1965 (I think) Bollywood film Gumnaam and am looking for recommendations for the over-the-top Busby Berkeley-isms of 60's Bollywood. Gumnaam's famous for that opening scene in Ghost World, but the movie has four other great song and dance scenes, including a dream sequence with a feller in a beatle wig and a hitler mustache dancing among easter island heads and more I can't begin to describe, a great frankie and annette type hoedown on the beach and a finale with two drunk gals singing while lurching around and hiccuping. In short, it's great, and I want more great vintage bollywood moments. Most of the old dvd's are cheap (12-13 bux) on the web. If you've got recommendations, I'd like to see them. I hope this isn't the pinnacle. Yer'n, Matt

for some reason

the cd reissue of rashied ali/frank lowe's duo exchange has omitted the sections where frank lowe plays japanese flute. curious, since he is credited with it on the insert.

Getting in on this kind of late, but... Lots of great FMP LPs are missing, and their statements indicate little interest in back catalog reissues. Specifics on my list: Schlippenbach's 3 NAILS LEFT, ANTICLOCKWISE, and HIDDEN PEAK. Have vinyl copies, but I'd love them on cd. Bless their hearts, UMS/Atavistic has reissued (today) the classic PAKISTANI POMADE. Whoopee, and with extra material. I await the mailman. There's also a couple of Globe Unity that are oop, and one London Jazz Composers Orchestra that was on the SAJ (?) label, I think. Considering the small output of both, one or two missing titles are a big chunk.

Tokyo record store
by Tosh 08 Apr '03

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! It's worth it. -- Tosh Berman TamTam Books http://www.tamtambooks.com

I would want to rescue Ran Blake/Jeanne Lee You Stepped Out of a Cloud (Owl) from oblivion. What a beautiful record. (Checking on Amazon, I see that two other Jeanne discs, including "The Newest Sound Around" are in print as imports. Thanks for the stimulating topic...) -Dave Smey Brooklyn, NY
