Zorn reference
by Tosh 05 Mar '04

05 Mar '04

I have read the book - and it is Morley riffing on pop music culture. Enjoyable in parts, tedious in certain areas - the book is closer in theme of sorts to David Toop's writings. But Toop I think is a much more interesting writer - Morley I think is fascinated by the sheen and the plastic aspects of pop music. -- Tosh Berman TamTam Books http://www.tamtambooks.com

A Zorn reference
by jermynsaville＠supanet.com 05 Mar '04

05 Mar '04

Wandered down to Foyle's bookshop (Tottenham Court Road, London) during my lunchbreak and was glancing through the music titles there. Came across Paul Morley's Words & Music (Bloomsbury, 2003) and was surprised to see that the acknowledgements in the rear of the book appeared to be credited to John Zorn (yes I know it's strange). As far as I can see it's a gratuitous reference as there doesn't appear to be anything else in the book that relates to him (most of the musical references I found while skimming through it were for Kylie Minogue). I was tempted to read it just to explain the Zorn mention but decided that I'd had too many years of wading through Morley when he wrote for the New Musical Express in the 1980s to suffer any more. Has anyone from the list read the book or can explain the name check? Thanks J Signup to supanet at https://signup.supanet.com/cgi-bin/signup?_origin=sigwebmail

by Phil Plencner 05 Mar '04

05 Mar '04

Did I miss something? According to the upcoming release list on tzadik.com the Birthday Celebration CDs are: Locus Solus: 50th Birthday Celebration Volume Three Electric Masada: 50th Birthday Celebration Volume Four The only one that's been released so far is: Masada String Trio: 50th Birthday Celebration Volume One So what happened to Volume Two?? Anyone? Anyone? BTW, has anyone heard the Red Pocket CD yet? I just got it and find it quite enjoyable. If you're a fan of Jewlia Eisenberg/Charming Hostess et.al. I think it's well worth picking up.

Mayor Tzadik whopper!!!!
by Arthur Gadney 04 Mar '04

04 Mar '04

According to Zorn: Yamamoto Seiichi: Baptism >From organizing concerts at his club Bears to performing in the cult bands Omoide Hatoba, Rovo and Boredoms, Yamamoto has been a central figure of the internationally acclaimed Osaka rock/noise scene since the late 80's. For his second Tzadik CD, one of Japan's most original and creative guitarists presents his first ever solo recording, an exciting and wide ranging program jumping from prepared electric to lyrical acoustic. Fred Frith, Joseph Spence and Derek Bailey are just a few of the influences Yamamoto touches upon in this intimate and surprising classic of new guitar. But Yamamoto already released two solo guitar albums, NOA and NOA2! _________________________________________________________________ FREE pop-up blocking with the new MSN Toolbar get it now! http://clk.atdmt.com/AVE/go/onm00200415ave/direct/01/
