Ed and his amazing 16 piece band (+ guests) return with his third album of his distinctive, big-band interpretations of the great 20th century composer, Frank Zappa. This body of work has won them huge acclaim from both new and old fans of the music and they even appeared on NPR's Weekend Edition for a short feature which was heard by millions of listeners in 2006. For those not already familiar with Ed's colorful, jazz-based arrangements of Zappa's compositions, Ed has led a big band for 30 years (!) and has had his band performing the music of Frank Zappa for 15 years. Many years of playing these pieces in front of hugely enthusiastic crowds have honed the band’s skills interpreting Zappa's beautiful but notoriously difficult material to where they are able to perform these challenging charts with apparent ease. All of these musicians are high caliber, hugely talented NYC professional players, and most of them have been playing this music for a decade and a half with this group, not because it is a good paying gig (it isn't) but because they all admire and appreciate the genius of Zappa's work and they love having the opportunity to be able to perform these terrifically exciting charts.

Review by Steven Loewy
Kevin Norton burns with a talent that relies as much on intellect as emotion. Here he performs with a quartet, a tight unit with an unusual instrumentation of trombone, vibes, bass, and drums. The first few tracks, which suffer somewhat from diminished sound quality, were recorded live at the Knitting Factory, with the final one recorded at the The Basement in New Jersey. The results evidence Norton's interest in extended compositions that incorporate specific improvisatory strategies and provide a launching pad for the soloists. Norton is fascinated by the vicissitudes of melody in which tempos, timbre, and color are continually slightly altered. This recording might serve as an introduction for some to Japanese trombonist Masahiko Kono, who plays a prominent role as the only horn on this recording. Kono coolly eschews bop, using electronics to gently subvert sounds, even providing a faint echo on "Not Drunk, but Stunned." His somewhat static soloing sets aside harmonic subtleties in favor of explorations of sound. He is best when interacting with Norton's dense drums or Hitomi Tono'oka's flowing vibes, the latter of which gleam with joyous celebration. Tano'oka, a former student of Norton's, impresses with a strong confidence which explains why Norton — a more than competent vibist himself — laid down his vibes for this set. The late Wilber Morris and Norton formed a dynamic rhythmic duo; and the bassist is given plenty of solo space which he takes ample advantage of. The drummer and bassist are in near-perfect synch, as the rhythm section, including the vibes, sets the pace for this distinctively pleasurable, if not critical, recording.

Peter Hammill - Lyrics. Тексты песен по-русски.
Переводы большинства текстов Питера Хэммилла и Van Der Graaf Generator. Прошу прощения за некоторые недостатки (форматирование и пр.). Всё это делалось на протяжении 8 лет (1985-1993), и сейчас делать крупномасштабную новую редакцию (за бесплатно!) нет ни желания, ни сил. И тем не менее! — работа проделана немалая. Есть практически все альбомы с 1969 по 1999 (за исключением разве что Roaring Forties), синглы, аннотации и даже два рассказа из второй книги ПХ. В конце 80-х я бы чего только не отдал за подобную подборку....))

Review by Thom Jurek
Essentially, John Zorn's O'o (named for an extinct Hawaiian bird) is a sequel to his brilliant and wonderfully breezy Dreamers set issued in March of 2008. The band is exactly the same: guitarist Marc Ribot, keyboardist Jamie Saft, drummer Joey Baron, bassist Trevor Dunn, percussionist Cyro Baptista, and vibraphonist Kenny Wollesen. Given that this is a thematic musical sequel, it holds the same potential trap as a cinematic one: that the constraints of the first chapter become so stultifying that they end up deeming themselves unnecessary as a seamless footnote to the original. A first listen to Zorn's ease with this meld of sounds-from surf to exotica, from cinema cues to grooving soul-jazz and '60s blues and rock themes — makes this seem to be so, as well. That said, first impressions are completely deceptive. If anything, this is an intricately sequenced, impeccably performed series of tunes that meld together in a cycle that is seamless yet wildly diverse and more detailed than Dreamers. Careful attention reveals a wealth of musics on display. On the aptly titled "Mysterious Starling," the repetitive theme played by Saft offers diminished minors before the shimmering drums of Baron, the understated atmospherics of Ribot's guitar, and lushness of Wollesen's vibes enter. This is a jazz tune recalling both the precision of Bill Evans and the gentle lyricism of Erroll Garner. Its expansive harmonics are combined with lithe melodic cues; the other instruments accent and embellish what's happening rhythmically and texturally. Elsewhere, on "Little Bittern," it's Ribot who guides the band with his knotty solo work, sharp chord voicings, and effortless glide between blues, surf, and garage rock. Saft's Rhodes and the rhythm section begin playing a slow shuffle, then Ribot's out front tearing it up with jagged, distorted blues bleeding into one another. "Archaeopteryx," sounds like a film noir theme. Ribot plays all bluesy atop Baptista's hand drums and gorgeous percussive colorings, with dissonant background touches from Saft, and minimal arco work from Dunn. The vibes become the constant backdrop on which the entire track turns. There are far lighter modes, too: the sprightly exotic flavors of "Laughing Owl," is where samba and South African township music meet and groove in a beach blanket dance number. "The Zapata Rail," though brief, is a B-3 and vibes duel that becomes a travel suite; the key and tempo change, and everything moves up a few notches, creating a groove intensity that is as tough as it is lush. Ribot eventually blows it up in an explosion of guitar heroics. Ultimately, O'o is not only a worthy successor to Dreamers, it also goes deeper. The band has been together longer, and has gelled as a unit in the studio. The compositions may be tighter but they are also more exploratory, requiring more individuality among the various players. They make this sound easy; it's a testament to their strength. It seems obvious that Zorn had this band in mind when he was composing these pieces; the adventure is in the rich detail work like a fine Polynesian tattoo. O'o is every bit as accessible and fun to listen to as Dreamers is, but in many ways, it's even more satisfying because it feels like a work rather than a collection of tunes. In fact, the only thing more pleasing than listening to this album would be hearing it performed live.
