In an attempt to produce a layout of radio show's playlist that is easier to
read here at Fusenet, I've restyled it as shown below - problems appear to have
been a Windows/Yahoo format clash. I'm also trying get a dedicated e.mail
address for show business/correspondence/chat - but that needs
Fusenet's agreement for me e.mail from  a new address - thereby reduce the
clutter in the usual jazzrockwriter address post box, which will continue to be
used for most other things.

I think a touch of confusion here. I picke dup on Garage A Trios via  Home Grown
Music's site - like Amazon - they offer aural samples but I was not saying they
reviewed and provided some form of writeon the band based on htse. There being
partly hooked by their ambiguous review, I checked samples but still took a risk
in buying - fortunately I was lucky and got something I enjoy . Unfortunately
for the handful of albums bought that way, there are stinkers IMHO.

Reviews should assume some basic knowledge however, what is 'basic' to the
fusion crowd in the USA, may not be so in Europe and vice versa. So to me the
suggestions of the styles of music played in the AAJ review gave the best clues.
Naming musicians names and assuming all the fusion crowd is aware of them,
doesn't run too far before falling over. But admittedly, for instance  'punk
jazz' is a vague term - but in this case  I think is just about right

One could not and should not write a reveiw based on 'aural samples', but on
at least a good, complete hearing of the thing one is reviewing (a CD, a
song, a body of work, ...).

And some outfits might not fit neatly into any one pidgeon-hole or event two
or three. Any band with a Skerik and / or a Dillon could be darned hard to
'classify'. The non-Aristotleian / non-Euclidian stage stomped by these
gifted wildmen does not deserve anything less than a large fistful of fervid
adjectives flung aginst the wall to see what sticks.

Gosh what a mess.

Many thanks for this insight. As a subscriber to a jam music specialist
site, this is what I had to go on:

'Garage A Trois is a collaboration between four of the most visionary
improvisers of the time: Skerik on saxophones, Mike Dillon on vibes, Marco
Benevento on keyboards and Stanton Moore on drums. And while improvisation
is at the heart of what this quartet has built its reputation on at their
legendary New Orleans Jazzfest sets and rare, but in demand, club tours,
it's the intricate sonic collages, tightly orchestrated arrangements and
positively modern approach to instrumental songwriting that's at the heart
of their latest album, Power Patriot.'

Short samples give very short clues as to what I will hear - but with
jazz-based musics expect far more than what a 30 sec (or whatever) extract
provides, surely? Therefore I get the album, like what I hear, and now
going play what I hear on my show. However, how to describe Garage A Trios's
music in word form???? Use of words like 'Orchestrated' carries the thought
of more than 4 players, doesn't it, so ambiguity here. Then as I said, I
listen to the whole of their album and I'm drawing parallels with the last
couple of albums by the UK's (Seb Rochford's) Acoustic Ladyland and what the
FIR-E movement is about - new jazz, fused all sorts other new musical
influences. The above description doesn't suggest that.....'modern approach
to instrumental songwriting' could mean anything.

So how does one write a clear review/overview without the presence of aural
samples of a relatively unknown band, so a potential album buyer can make a
good decision: to buy/not to buy?.

Garage a Trois began as Stanton Moore, Charlie Hunter & Skerik. They added
Mike Dillon after a while. Approx 2 years ago, keyboardist Marco Benevento
replaced Hunter. I preferred the Hunter edition, but the Benevento edition
is also lots of fun, especially live. Have seen the various versions of the
group for several years at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Fest, usually by
pushing myself to stay up way past my bedtime for club shows.

Live they veer from Sun Ra to James Brown to Zappa influences, among others,
with topnotch musicianship and sly humor.

I hope this helps.

Checking out the Home Grown Music site a few weeks ago, hooked by the
description of Garage A Trois's music, as being called 'New Orleans.....
jazz jam'. Now have their album 'Patriot Power', like it but further
confused/bemused by the noun 'jam jazz'. In fact Garage A Trois remind me of
the UK FIR-E movement of young jazz musicians, in particular the punk jazz
(I can make up terms as well - but for a studio recording is perhaps more
apt) of the recent Acoustic Ladyland recordings - the raw drumming is the
similarity?

Any comments please.

Mike Dillon after a while. Approx 2 years ago, keyboardist Marco Benevento
replaced Hunter. I preferred the Hunter edition, but the Benevento edition
is also lots of fun, especially live. Have seen the various versions of the
group for several years at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Fest, usually by
pushing myself to stay up way past my bedtime for club shows.

Live they veer from Sun Ra to James Brown to Zappa influences, among others,
with topnotch musicianship and sly humor.

I hope this helps.

Checking out the Home Grown Music site a few weeks ago, hooked by the
description of Garage A Trois's music, as being called 'New Orleans.....
jazz jam'. Now have their album 'Patriot Power', like it but further
confused/bemused by the noun 'jam jazz'. In fact Garage A Trois remind me of
the UK FIR-E movement of young jazz musicians, in particular the punk jazz
(I can make up terms as well - but for a studio recording is perhaps more
apt) of the recent Acoustic Ladyland recordings - the raw drumming is the
similarity?

Any comments please.

One could not and should not write a reveiw based on 'aural samples', but on
at least a good, complete hearing of the thing one is reviewing (a CD, a
song, a body of work, ...).

And some outfits might not fit neatly into any one pidgeon-hole or event two
or three. Any band with a Skerik and / or a Dillon could be darned hard to
'classify'. The non-Aristotleian / non-Euclidian stage stomped by these
gifted wildmen does not deserve anything less than a large fistful of fervid
adjectives flung aginst the wall to see what sticks.

Gosh what a mess.

Many thanks for this insight. As a subscriber to a jam music specialist
site, this is what I had to go on:

'Garage A Trois is a collaboration between four of the most visionary
improvisers of the time: Skerik on saxophones, Mike Dillon on vibes, Marco
Benevento on keyboards and Stanton Moore on drums. And while improvisation
is at the heart of what this quartet has built its reputation on at their
legendary New Orleans Jazzfest sets and rare, but in demand, club tours,
it's the intricate sonic collages, tightly orchestrated arrangements and
positively modern approach to instrumental songwriting that's at the heart
of their latest album, Power Patriot.'

Short samples give very short clues as to what I will hear - but with
jazz-based musics expect far more than what a 30 sec (or whatever) extract
provides, surely? Therefore I get the album, like what I hear, and now
going play what I hear on my show. However, how to describe Garage A Trios's
music in word form???? Use of words like 'Orchestrated' carries the thought
of more than 4 players, doesn't it, so ambiguity here. Then as I said, I
listen to the whole of their album and I'm drawing parallels with the last
couple of albums by the UK's (Seb Rochford's) Acoustic Ladyland and what the
FIR-E movement is about - new jazz, fused all sorts other new musical
influences. The above description doesn't suggest that.....'modern approach
to instrumental songwriting' could mean anything.

So how does one write a clear review/overview without the presence of aural
samples of a relatively unknown band, so a potential album buyer can make a
good decision: to buy/not to buy?.

I think a touch of confusion here. I picke dup on Garage A Trios via  Home
Grown Music's site - like Amazon - they offer aural samples but I was not saying
they reviewed and provided some form of writeon the band based on htse. There
being partly hooked by their ambiguous review, I checked samples but still took
a risk in buying - fortunately I was lucky and got something I enjoy .
Unfortunately for the handful of albums bought that way, there are stinkers
IMHO.

Reviews should assume some basic knowledge however, what is 'basic' to the
fusion crowd in the USA, may not be so in Europe and vice versa. So to me the
suggestions of the styles of music played in the AAJ review gave the best clues.
Naming musicians names and assuming all the fusion crowd is aware of them,
doesn't run too far before falling over. But admittedly, for instance  'punk
jazz' is a vague term - but in this case  I think is just about right

I find it to be misleading.  These guys have digested jazz completely and use it
to make their own music.  The punk aspect of the band is summed up in Skerik's
oddball behavior - evident in every other project he's been a party to.  The
overriding result of the collaboration is a jazzy groove band - perfect for the
jam-band scene.  In my opinion, they fit in with the jazzier jam bands such as
Garaj Mahal or Zony Mash or Medeski Martin & Wood.

To my mind, Stanton Moore is the governing factor.  He lays down the groove that
the other players respond to.  He's got the imperative, and he responds less to
the others than they do to him.

Hunter sounds like an organist when he plays with these guys.  Benevento will
fill in nicely for them.

Garage a Trois is a very talented group of players.  I haven't heard them with
Benevento in the band but I look forward to it - they are coming to town in
December.  - S.

np:  nine twenty-seven

Actually, that was AAJ's Mark Corotto who wrote that, and it *is* a grand
line, isn't it? :-)

Many thanks for this insight. As a subscriber to a jam music specialist site,
this is what I had to go on:

'Garage A Trois is a collaboration between four of the most visionary
improvisers of the time: Skerik on saxophones, Mike Dillon on vibes, Marco
Benevento on keyboards and Stanton Moore on drums. And while improvisation is at
the heart of what this quartet has built its reputation on at their legendary
New Orleans Jazzfest sets and rare, but in demand, club tours, it's the
intricate sonic collages, tightly orchestrated arrangements and positively
modern approach to instrumental songwriting that's at the heart of their latest
album, Power Patriot.'

Short samples give very short clues as to what I will hear - but with
jazz-based musics expect far more than what a 30 sec (or whatever) extract
provides, surely?  Therefore I get the album, like what I hear, and now going
play what I hear on my show. However, how to describe Garage A Trios's music
in word form???? Use of words like 'Orchestrated' carries the thought of more
than 4 players, doesn't it, so ambiguity here. Then as I said, I listen to the
whole of their album and I'm drawing parallels with the last couple of albums
by the UK's (Seb Rochford's) Acoustic Ladyland and what the FIR-E movement is
about - new jazz, fused all sorts other new musical influences. The above
description doesn't suggest that.....'modern approach to instrumental
songwriting' could mean anything.

So how does one write a clear review/overview without the presence of aural
samples of a relatively unknown band, so a potential album buyer can make a good
decision: to buy/not to buy?.

Garage a Trois began as Stanton Moore, Charlie Hunter & Skerik.  They added
Mike Dillon after a while.  Approx 2 years ago, keyboardist Marco Benevento
replaced Hunter.  I preferred the Hunter edition, but the Benevento edition is
also lots of fun, especially live.  Have seen the various versions of the group
for several years at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Fest, usually by pushing
myself to stay up way past my bedtime for club shows. 

Live they veer from Sun Ra to James Brown to Zappa influences, among others,
with topnotch musicianship and sly humor.

I hope this helps.

Checking out the Home Grown Music site a few weeks ago, hooked by the
description of Garage A Trois's music, as being called 'New Orleans..... jazz
jam'. Now have their album 'Patriot Power', like it but
further   confused/bemused by the noun 'jam jazz'. In fact Garage A Trois
remind me of the UK FIR-E movement of young jazz musicians, in particular the
punk jazz (I can make up terms as well - but for a studio recording is perhaps
more apt) of the recent Acoustic Ladyland recordings -  the raw drumming is the
similarity?

Any comments please.

Is Stanton Moore a part of that group? It seems that everything he
touches gets put in that genre. I like his very loose and funky style.

Pete,
I would seriously consider buying the 40th of Lizard (all of them, if you're a
crimhead). Steven Wilson's remix - stereo as well as surround - shed a whole new
light on the rich details of Lizard. If you're a Lizard lover like I am (I'm
with you completely), this is one remaster well worth opening up your piggy bank
for!
Best!
Dave

They're all going to receive the same treatment, so yes, Islands will be out
also, just not sure when...I believe the intention is to release the entire
original Crimson discography within a year, but they were a little behind on
these, so it's possible thing will slip a bit...

But your wish shall absolutely be coming true...and nice to hear from another

thats a well put together article
All I can tell you is my 10 and more years playing with JLP were the best
musical years of my life. Jean Luc respects music, he knows that every note is
important , he knows that he must reach the listener. He is and always will be
my hero. He's also one of the coolest friends to have.

Alkotrio. No, I didn't get anywhere on several web searches other than finding
guitar shred and jazz fusion blogs linking to free downloads - include flac
versions. I would like to support the band by buying a CD - but who's is their
label - I can't believe they are giving this away! Last time I looked, their
MySpace site seems unattended - but might check back there. As a compiler of one
of Jazzwise's monthly jazz charts, I ended up listing the album's label as
"WHITE LABEL" so the record/band would get one small mention in the magazine.

My understand is that those are unreleased, but pro-shot shows, a la, tv
broadcasts and the like. If someone knows of one of those shows that came out
commercially, you should let them know. My bet is they'll pull it.
