Best "rock" or "pop" or however you want to classify it I've heard in ages. Like a mix between The Goslings and Royal Trux "Twin Infinitives", with some of the best moments of the Xpressway label thrown in.

Reports on the Ferial Confine & Oosterlynck sets greatly appreciated, thanks.

Had a bit of blowout at a record fair round here just recently.

Highlights:

Ghana soundz Soundways comp
Sun Ra Saturn press, hand drawn cover, $9
Bunch of nice Indian classical records, Sharan Rani being the highlight of those.
Orchestra Reigonal de Kayes

Amadu Bansang Jobateh - Master of the Kora
Tony Conrad - Fantastic Glissando
Sumara Lubelski - In the Valley
Dean Roberts - and the black moths play the grand cinema
plus more..

Was happy to finally see a CD release of Gaburo's vocal/text masterpiece "Maledetto". Even more exciting for me was to see that his percussion/tape solo "Antiphony VIII (Revolution!)" was finally released. My first thought was, "who the hell actually performed this piece again after it was written?" because it's such a huge undertaking and the performance materials aren't readily available. My question was answered when I saw that the recording is from the late 80s and taken from a live performance. This is kind of irritating as it means the tape part is really distant sounding but it's a lot better than nothing considering that, until now, I'd only seen the score and never heard an actual performance.

LP. My wallet really hates me. But I'm not disappointed.

I just got the new Fred Van Hove solo on Psi - which is amazing. I got got the Emanem "Catittu" also, which is a good improv quartet.

Damon, I trust you have the Van Hove/Dauner Requiem For Che Guevara / Psalmus Spei, with Kowald on bass?

Yeah, that is a good one! I just got the new Minton solo today. Both Amoebas (SF & Berkeley) ordered well recently.

You were lucky finding a copy of that - been OOP forever. Great disc though, definitely should be reissued, like so many of the Absurds.

yeah, second hand from the Korm Plastics list. one of the better Mnorthams for sure.

Nagisa Ni Te - Feel [2001 P-Vine / Jagjaguwar]
Nagisa Ni Te - The same as a flower [2004 P-Vine / Jagjaguwar]
Drudkh - Estrangement [2007 Supernal]

bien étonnés de se trouver ensemble, I'm sure.
