But Ken, we know that you don't really like rock drummers :-). I saw the band in Portland and the fact that the drummer was not a regular jazz/improv drummer is what made the show different (and prevented me from falling asleep since I find regular jazz/improv quartets more and more predictable). Now I am willing to accept that in this contect the lyrical side of Satoko was lost. But this project has a different objective than your usual jazz/improv quartet, no? If she hired Yoshida, it was not to get Elvin or Joey behind the kit. Patrice.
