Hell, there are still fewer Masada records than Ornette Coleman or Steve Lacy or Charlie Parker or Deep Purple, even. So, I think the real problem may be in your penultimate sentence. You really buy EVERY Tzadik release? You're bound to be dissapointed by some of them, then. Wow, I'm amazed really. Of course, you can complain if you want to, about as many things as you want. Just don't expect people to listen to a dead horse being beaten. (forthcoming CD release notwithstanding). Rob Quoting Efrén del Valle <efrendv@yahoo.es>:
Denying that Masada has been overexploited at this point seems pretty absurd. And with regards to those theoretical financing purposes, I don't see why a MST album should sell more than another Naked City live volume or something in the style of "The Gift". Of course nobody's forced to listen to all of his output, that's obvious, but I think that most of us were used to a more steady production rythm from the guy. Zorn even admitted in that Bomb Mag interview that he had slowed down too much and that he felt he had done nothing in 2002. 2003 has been even worse in that sense. Tzadik is still my favorite label and I get every single new release with only a few exceptions. But even so I find one single reason to complain, just one, if I may.
