Review, Irving Stone Tribute at Tonic 7/5/03

Dear all: I've written an extremely long review of the Zorn-organized tribute to Irving Stone, a longtime supporter of the Downtown and Vision Fest scenes, that took place all day this past Saturday at Tonic. I decided that it was far too long to e-mail, so instead I'll just provide a pointer to the website. Participants in the 10-hour event included Zorn and Ikue Mori, Tim Berne, Charles Gayle, William Parker's Little Huey Orchestra, Butch Morris and countless others. The tribute was recorded for a forthcoming double CD release on Tzadik, but you can read all about it here: http://www.jazzcornertalk.com/speakeasy/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1641 Steve Smith ssmith36@sprynet.com
