What, no mention of Boud Deun!?!?  That's it, I'm not writing for
Ground and Sky any more. ;-)

This list being a spin-off from the Kansas mailing list, that band
goes without saying...

Violinist Caryn Lin has two very nice solo albums and also
contributes to a few Project Lo tracks.

The Gong album _Shapeshifter_ has some good violin work on it.

Zappa used various violinists to great effect here and there, most
notably Sugarcane Harris on _Hot Rats_ and _Weasels Ripped My Flesh_,
L. Shankar on the track "Thirteen" from one of the _You Can't Do
That On Stage Anymore_ discs, and Jean-Luc Ponty on some of the
tracks on _Lost Episodes_.  Shankar and Ponty also both had solo
albums produced by Zappa, and both albums are really good.

ELO usually used the violin as sweetener or window dressing, but
there's some good stuff on their earliest albums - I particuarly
like the violin solo in "Kuiama" from _ELO II_.

Hmmm, there's got to be more in my collection (I really like
violin in prog), but that's all I can think of right now.


So Godspeed and Mt. Zion feature violin?  I'm gonna have to pick
up something by them.  By odd coincidence, I just finished listening
to that sampler CDR you sent me, but I can't remember if the Silver
Mt. Zion track on that featured violin or not.

Review - Musical Box's recreation of The Lamb lies Down on Broadway
Venue - Music Hall, Danforth, Toronto Ontario
Date 11/26 & 11/27

     Well I was a bit young for the first go round, so when I heard on the net
that the Musical Box was going to tackle Genesis' masterpiece, I had to find
a way to get there.  I will say that Toronto is a bit colder than San Diego
in late November, but I still own a coat from my earlier days on the East
coast, so what the hell.

     For the sake of anyone not familiar with the Musical Box, they are sort
of the "king of the tribute" band and tend to take everything the 3rd decimal
place when recreating a show.  What I mean is that they not only have to look
the part, they have to have the same stage set up, the same instruments, the
same costumes, the same spoken word segments etc.etc.

     A great reproduction would have been enough for me, but in this
particular case (there being no full length film of Genesis doing this show),
MB managed to persuade Gabriel himself to loan the 1100 slide (show), and
apparently the costumes.  I'm not sure how far into the realm of support
Genesis delved, but I wouldn't be surprised if someone in the know commented
that it was sponsored.

     I was fortunate enough to sit next to a guy who had seen the original in
74 (a bunch of times), and he said it was identical, even down to the special
effects

1) Rael costume
2) slipperman costume
3) spinning Lamia Sheath
4) Bubble Cocoon
5) pyrotechnics
6) Duplicate Rael strobe effect where he becomes his brother John

     Instrumentally, I'd say that Hacket was freakin perfect, as was
Rutheford.  Banks was a new guy (only about 20 years old), and he did an
excellent job as well. I didn't focus very much on the drummer, but did
notice that they were at least 10 - 15 BPM fast on "the cage". Overall it was
way closer to perfect than I imagined it could be, going in.

     Highest marks have to go to the lead singer, Corteau'.  Not only does
this guy look like Gabriel did back then, he can mimic him to the point it
was hard to distinguish the difference.

Appearance - Extremely close in size and stature (note - when they were doing
the suppers ready tour, he also had the famous reverse mohawk cut into his
hairline - this should tell you how seriously he takes things)

Motion - some spots were awesome, some were performed.  For example they
played the musical box as a first encore, and the Old man costume that
Gabriel wore and the hunched over walk that he mimed, were all copied
perfectly

Spoken word sound - This was amazing.  it was akin to watching the Saturday
Night live dude do Al Gore. He had the inflection and cadence down to a tee.

Spoken word content - He kept pretty close to the exact stories that Gabriel
told between songs and sets, but didn't keep it identical.

Voice - high register, and Falsetto - indistinguishable from Gabriel - close
you eyes and you were there.  He even cracked his voice a few time (I think
on purpose) much in the way Peter does (live)

Voice - low register - Better during the strong loud parts than the softer
parts, where there would be some waver. (I'm being pretty critical aren't I).
When there was a boomer of a line, it was delivered perfectly "I need someone
to believe in someone to trust"

Despite one section on Sunday only where he forgot the words to a few lines
during lamia, I just can't imagine anyone ever doing a better job at this.

Oh yeah, and to take it to the final step, yes he played the flute parts
perfectly, even lying down in character.  Again it wouldn't surprise me to
learn he took flute lessons just to complete the part :-)

Sound and lights were scripted and perfect, though I always vote for the keys
to be higher.

There was even a smell of peach blossom in the air, though it may have been
Cannabis.

Audience was good as it was clear everyone knew the music.  The only
downside, and to an extent my biggest complaint about concerts in general.

Why is it that 15% of the audience thinks that the quiet parts are in the
music so they can scream and act obnoxious?

Note to audience, that is what the parts between the songs are for. Just wait
for the playing to stop to do your thing.

I'm pacifist or that 4foot 5 munchkin that decided to stand in the aisle next
to me and sing (scream) off key would have had to deal with a 220 pound
Republican.  (much easier to move to a different part of the aisle and get
back into the music).

Some of the subtle pretty guitar parts were almost over, by the time a few of
the idiota quieted down, (Sat was more boisterous than Sunday).

Anyway - it's probably pointless to attempt to describe the music itself
because it was "as recorded" - just what I wanted!!!

l shankar does some wonderful work with mclaughlin in shakti, as does ponty
with the mahavishnu orchestra. a handful of pontys solo albums are superior.

how about jerry goodman from the original lineup of mahavishnu and now with
the dregs. he kicked ass at the dt/dregs show last year.
how about hollis brown from ozone quartet? another good one.
your right about the violin in boud deun. excellent.

btw, buy a couple of bluegrass albums. great fiddle playing there! i always
liked a one on one between a banjo and a fiddle.

Well, I was kind of trying to avoid fusion bands, since the original

Yeah, they use a lot of acoustic strings, but generally not in your
usual melodic symphonic style.  There's a ton of violin in that
Silver Mt. Zion track I put on your disc :)

GYBE! tend to bury their violin under noise - samples, static, or
electric guitar noise - but it's still definitely there and adds
some poignancy.  ASMZ are much more stripped-down, with much less
noise, and so the violin is more prominent.

Zevon is great live.  I have only seen him once ("Mr. Bad Example" tour), but
really enjoyed it and wish he would come back to the area again sometime.  It
was pretty much the same when I saw him as most of the audience seemed to

most of my generation has fallen into.  Interestingly, I did not even
discover Zevon until well after his heyday, in fact I absolutely hated
"Werewolves Of London" when it was a hit.  Being pretty much my only exposure
to Zevon, I pretty much thought he sucked until a friend of mine persuaded me
to borrow "A Quiet Normal Life" a few years ago.  From then on I was hooked.  
He is a great songwriter, and his cynical/sarcastic/humorus view on life
makes for some of the better lyrics ever written.  He is also a very talented
musician, which again, I did not discover until I actually saw him li! ve.

stevesly@...
Send Email Send Email
 
First I would just like to say great review Todd!  I really wish Musical Box
would cross the border into Michigan one of these days as I would love to
catch this show.  

Reading your review reminded me that I have been wanting to make a comment on
the new IQ live video that I picked up at Progday this year entitled
"Subterrania - The Concert".  Reading about The Musical Box with it's
theatrical elements (which is a big part of what drew me to progressive rock
in the first place years ago), I had to make a comparison with this new video
from IQ.  The video is the entire Subterrania concert as it was performed
with the full production in Europe in 1999.  For those of you who saw IQ at
NEARfest (myself in included), well.........we didn't see shit.  IQ
performing with their full production looked to be an incredible concert
experience that totally blows away their NEARfest performance.  With a full
light show, costumes, effects, and even an actor who plays a part in the
production, IQ carries on in the tradition of "The Lamb", and IMO is
essential viewing for any of you ! who are into this type of stuff.  Peter
Nichols is mesmerizing as he stays in character throughout the entire
production (much in the way that Gabriel used to), with his voice in tip top
shape.  What came across to some at NEARfest as "posing and preening" takes
on a whole new meaning with the full production as Nichols theatrics totally
fit in with the story, enhancing rather that detracting from the music being
performed.  All of the musicians are in good form as well.  IQ may never rank
up there with the "elite" musicians of the progressive genre, but they are
still very good at what they do, and play with spirit and passion that are
often missing from many of today's proggers.  The bottom line......if you are
into theatrical progressive rock in the tradition of "Lamb" era Genesis the
"IQ - Live" video is a must have.

If you can find a copy, I think her first album _Honour the Rain_ is
much better than _Tolerance_.  _Honor_ sounds more like her live
shows - just violin, loops and effects.  _Tolerance_ seems to have
gotten overproduced, with the violin (the real heart of the music)

If you can find Shankar's _Touch Me There_, get it.  That's the one that
Zappa produced.  It came out in 1979 and unfortunately has a bit of a
disco edge to it here and there, but it contains one rippin' three
minute fusion song called "Little Stinker", and another very nice
eight minute instrumental called "No More Mr. Nice Girl".  Plus a few
other good tracks.

This is gonna put my progsnob reputation in jeopardy, but...I still
don't own any Mahavishnu CDs.

I've got two Dixie Dregs CDs and while I like both of them, I don't
find myself listening to them very often.  Dunno why.

D'oh, how could I have forgotten Ozone?  Good call.

My dad's a big country music fan, and every now and then when I go
to visit he'll be watching some bluegrass thing on TV...and it's not
too bad.  The only stuff I absolutely can't tolerate is the modern
"pop country" stuff like Garth Brooks and that crap.

Yep, there is.  Shortly after sending that email, I went out to lunch
with the jazz-head guy I work with.  Driving to the resturant, I played
a few tracks from your mix disc for him to see what he thought, and one
of them was the Silver Mt. Zion track.  He liked it, and I was thinking
to myself "How did I *not* notice the violin all over this?".  BTW, he
also really liked the Korekyojn and Ruins tracks - being a bass player,
he said he really liked the bass tone on those.  And for those who think
I'm against vocals in music - he wouldn't even listen to any tracks with
vocals, even if there were no lyrics.

i agree. actually it was your tc1 tape that got me interested in her. the

Especially when there aren't any vocals.

There's a CD by fiddlist Mark O'Connor called _The New Nashville Cats_
that shreds righteously.  Most tracks are instrumental, and everybody
under the sun in the Nashville session scene rips it up.  Most of the
Flecktones are even on a few tracks.  Every style of
country/bluegrass/Appalachian/what-have-you is represented.  I think it
might appeal to jazz fans.  For all I know, the disc is out of print (it's
on Warner Bros. - look it up).

That stuff is bluegrass the same way, say, Magma isn't.

Here's the Captain's review of Geoff Bosco's TC3 tape.  As you can see he's in
his usual fine form :)

Chuck

1. Poet Liar Crucible Excellent band and CD.  Cannot wait for their new
CD 8
of 10

2. Mennonite Lady Spooky Ruben I guess for me this one song is not enuf
to
decide if I like it.  The acoustic guitar work is nice - but when the bands
gets into gear it reminds me of bad Stone Temple Pilots or similar. 4 of
10

3. Blue...? (can't read your writing Geoff) Dave Brubeck. I have liked the
even flow of Brubeck's work for years.  This is another fine example of
Brubeck jazz.  The wonderful sax, so Smokey room jazz, with the piano parts
just over the top.  Then evolving into the Lounge singer sax all alone with
bass and drums, then back to the almost honky tonk piano.  Good touch 7
of
10

4. Underground - Ben Folds Five - I suppose this is a song about making
fun
of that whole "underground" scene.  Basically these guys are lost on me.
Marginal playing ability, typical of the MTV generation.  Their humor, if
that is what it is, is lost on me. 2 of 10

5. The Goodbye Look Donald Fagan Wow!  As one who loved Steely Dan, I was
pleased to have a taste of DF again.  Really sounds like Steely Dan anyway.
Love the vibes.. That lovely metallic tinkling sound carrying the melody
-
Fagens just slightly off key sounding voice - very mellow, yet a groove
you
could run through...  Very nice.  7 of 10

6. Donate Your Heart - Spooky Ruben - I see Geoff has given me several more
by this artist to see if I like....  Musically very nice, but can this guy
not hold a note?  In one line he moves from a soprano to an alto to a tenor
then a bass.  Maybe it's the hokey effects on his voice...

Still reminds me of that west coast sound (grunge) that I've never liked.
However, much better musically than the first song by this artist on this
tape.  5 of 10

7. Tomorrow Never Knows - Beatles - One of the first times I did LSD this
song was played.  How can you not like a Beatles song.  Wish I could still
get LSD today like I had back then!!!  8 of 10

8. Memories - Spookey Ruben - Another SR tune...  I have no way of knowing
if all the SR songs are from one or more CD's...  This time the lyrics
really caught me, even though the music is just so, so...6 of 10

9. Gaslight Abbie - Steely Dan - What do you want me to say?  LOVE IT!
Aren't many bands that have such a groove in almost every song.  8 of 10

10. Hat Too Fat - Walter Becker - Odd, ...finally works into some kind of
reggae thing, very weak...  4 of 10

11. In Ancient Tongue - Crucible - Love them ,6 of 10

12. Welcome to the House Food (?) Spooky Ruben.  Okay, this is starting
to
get boring.  Can this singer please find a range and stick to it?  This
guy
is starting to scare me!!  3 of 10

13. Throw Back the Little Ones - Steely Dan - Enuf Steely Dan already...6
of
10

14. Last Polka - Ben Folds Five - Ditto my previous comments about this
band
3 of 10

15. Poem #9 & Too Late for Everything - Echolyn - Hey it's Echolyn, we are
all suppose to like them right?  4 of 10

16. These Days are Old - Spookey Rubin - I'm outta here, this singer sux
2
of 10

17. Everyone's Gone - Steely Dan - I love you already!  5 of 10

18. Take Five - Dave Brubeck - Good but boring...  5 of 10

Too much of the same artist on this sampler...

I'm gonna try to get to that show if possible.  I'm hoping that
seeing the material performed live will help turn me on to
Mahavishnu - I probably wouldn't be the big Boud Deun fanboy
that I am if I hadn't seen them play live several times.

I'd really like to get to that Quarkspace show too, but my wife
works that night so I'm stuck with Daddy duty.

Well, it's not that I haven't heard them - I've borrowed most of
their albums from the jazz-head guy I work with.  But for some
reason I've just never been moved to go out and buy them.  There's
always a dozen other albums I want more...

Yeah, I didn't mean to imply that Garth is bluegrass...I'm
just saying that mainstream pop country music gives me hives.
Makes driving anywhere with my dad pure hell (that's all he
listens to in his pickup truck.  You'd think he was a southern

See, I just there must be an inherent flaw in the fabric of the Universe
for there to exist a rabid Boud Deun fanboy who doesn't own any Mahavishnu
Orchestra albums :-)

Yet I *am* from Florida, but could easily go another lifetime without
hearing any mainstream country music.  And yes, I can count, thank you.

_Kind of Blue_ is arguably one of the finest albums of the century.  No,
not even arguably.

Yeah, I know.  Like I said, it's probably just because I had
the chance to see BD play live so many times, but never saw
Mahavishnu.  But even so - for some reason I just prefer bands
that approach fusion from the rock side of the fence to those
that come from the jazz side.  I have no idea why.

Florida's not really part of "The South", is it?  I thought it
was where old Northerners go to die.  The ones that don't stay
in Pennsylvania, that is.

Subject: Review: Godspeed You Black Emperor! in Baltimore
alevin@...
Send Email Send Email
 
On Saturday night, my friend and I trekked into northern Baltimore to the
eternally under-renovation St John's Church. The event was supposed to
start at 8pm. We arrived at 5 before the hour to find a huge line of
college-age kids snaked all around the front of the church. I spotted Mike
Potter and the Mikes and Dave from Uncle Gut up a bit in the line. That
was about it for the local "prog" community. Oh well! Their presence
wasn't required to make this a successful event since there were scores of
people walking around looking for tickets for this sold out show.
Unfortunately there we stood for another 40 minutes or so in the freezing
cold while we could hear soundcheck rolling along inside.

Eventually we did get in and found the interior to be  pretty much of
a mess with bare brick showing beneath the plaster in places. Mike Potter
noted that the last time he was there 2 years ago there were actually
holes in the roof and birds flying around inside. Luckily there had been
some progress since that time as it looked like we had a pretty solid roof
above our heads. There were no seats of any kind so we took claim to a
piece of floor directly to the side of the soundboard area which was
surrounded by some upended folding tables. The stage was not significantly
bigger than the one at Orion, yet somehow they managed an unmanageable
feat of getting every band set up on stage - a feat considering the
headliner is currently a 9 piece unit.

Unfortunately I totally zoned on the names of the opening acts. The first
was a 2 guitarist, bassist/el. pianist, drummer based instrumental
group. Who were very repetitive and lacked energy until the last piece of
their 20 minute set. I was sorry to see them stop, because they really
started getting interesting on that last piece. Think math-rock on
downers.

The next act didn't really float my boat at all. 2 guitarists/vocalists,
bassist and drummer - who while obviously very very talented seemed to be
providing percussive accompaniement to totally different songs. The music
was an extreeeeeeeeemely laid back folky downer slacker type thang that
dragged like molasses.

Finally sometime around 10:15 or so the lights came down, the projection
units started and the sound of a mournful violin broke the air - soon
joined in a duet with a cello, snaking around each other for a few minutes
before building up tension to the point where the guitar section (3
guitarists), bass section (2 electric bassists) and percussion section (2
guys switching between playing a full kit on stage right and a smaller
percussion set with tympani and glockenspiel) - kicked in. Godspeed You
Black Emperor had arrived in Baltimore.

You know all those progressive rock bands that are considered symphonic
rock, where it's usually an adequate rhythm section providing a steady
backing to one keyboard maniac recycling cliched Bach and Beethoven riffs?
Well, forget that! These folks are the closest I've ever seen a "rock
band" work together as an orchestra. No gratuitous soloing - everyone
working together to create intricate textures and carry the pieces along.
Speaking of the pieces, they were presented as one long performance, each
flowing into the next. Their albums typically feature pieces 15-30 minutes
long with an incredible sense of dynamics. Musically, imagine Shostakovich
in his latter years dropping acid with Meddle-era pink Floyd and coming up
with something a hell of a lot more effective than "Atom Heart Mother".

The show ended around 1am or so with the cellist, violinist and one
guitarist playing a very quiet mournful piece while one of the
percussionist strapped on a snare drum and snaked his way through the
audience punctuating beats here and there.

The visuals projected about the church were fairly frightening visions of
demons, phrases that looked like they came from the narration of
nightmares and black and white film loops of things like a lone man pacing
around on a street corner.

A simply amazing show and hands down the most amazing performance of
many that I have seen over the past year.

Here's the remaining dates on their current tour:
