It's is mostly slow in tempo with plenty of that famous reverb and echo from these Workshop recordings. I am very impressed with the opening track and have enjoyed the whole album overall, especially as there is some great Ra piano in the mix here and there. It is great that these ultra rare recordings are actually still available from the Evidence reissue campaign back between and , I have relied on them heavily in building by collection.
This is the second release in the discography where I haven't been able to purchase it on CD "Deep Purple" was the other one although some of the tracks I have on "Sound Of Joy" , except some of the tracks above appeared on the "Standards" CD. This original release has a particularly convoluted history and has never been reissued on CD, so I got this version from Adventure Equation Blog.
Also check out Nuvoid , for a more indepth review and history. The first four tracks, again recorded at the Choreographers workshop in , continue the series of jazz standards the Arkestra covered and overall is an enjoyable workout, although I do prefer it when they play the more original Sun Ra compositions.
Tracks 5 to 10 cover similar ground and some I have covered on the "Standards" CD. All fairly conventional Jazz but more in the Bebop style than the earlier swing that Ra played previously.
A nice set. Track 11 was the original B-side of What's New but was only issued on very few copies of the original pressing before the other tracks, , replaced it on later pressings. This is a fairly lo-fi live recording of an apparently improvised number which sounds familiar with parts of other tracks incorporated.
The line "space is the place" and perhaps, the line"My Brother The Wind" indicate this. Ra Sermonising his space stuff.
Not particularly interesting. Gorilla Toss - Gorilla Toss Tzadik Some More from Tzadik. After 10 Tzadik CDs, none of which I had heard any of the music before I purchased them, I haven't yet had one that I didn't like or couldn't connect with in some way, until now. This is very harsh and grating music, it is very stop start with lots of tempo changes, quite punky with a female singer with a high pitched almost squeal who sings kinda staccato and is impossible to understand.
It does remind me of some of the UK post punk from the early 80s but with far less melody. It takes dedication to stay with this and to be able to notice the textures and layers built into this complex music.
I have noticed that in small amounts, like the occasional track played within a playlist, that I am able to give it enough attention to appreciate the textures but across the whole set is too much. Do I like it? Not all that much at present, but there is enough here to keep me interested in giving the music time to see if I come round to enjoying it.
Labels: Gorilla Toss , Music , Tzadik. Fuck Yeah!!! I have already covered "Paranoid" much earlier on this blog so now I'm headbanginmg to their 3rd album in "Masters Of reality. This album opens and closes with two of the best Sabbath tunes, with the ode to The Leaf with the magnificent "Sweet leaf", yet another monster riff of mind blowing proportions and the truly brilliant "Into the Void closing the set, also another unforgettable Sabbath Riff.
In between these two masterpieces lurks another bunch of awesomely heavy tracks to bludgeon your ears. Labels: Black Sabbath , Music. Alvin Curran - Shofar Rags Tzadik To the Kill Live Version.
