Brilliant, indeed. There is another title under the Jettison Slinky moniker: the
2001 released "The Only Song We Know" (very good - maybe even a little bit
better than "Dank Side of the Morn").
The brain behind Jettison Slinky is Ted Brinkley, aka Graham Connah. Very active
in the San Francisco / Bay Area with various combos, usually under his lead.
Last time I heard from him, a few months ago he had a group called "Neptune's
Rogue Apothecary", but as far as I know there is no recorded output.
Hi all, Still in pain because of Hugh's departure and another great musician passes away. Charlie Mariano is gone! But he was also a man of high age (over 80);...
Charlie is featured prominently on Eberhard Weber's 1975 "Yellow Fields" on ECM records. The soprano sax on the mood piece "Sand-Glass" is hypnotizing. Jay [Of...

Hi Brian and all, I don't think it is dangerous at all if any information coming from this discussion is taken as indicative only. Furthermore I didn't mean...
Hi, I'm with Pierre in most of his comments. In general, I'd go with the people involved hypothesis (I usually consider Canterbury output stuff where members...
Good to see Cos mentioned - I was listening to them only the other day, and they still don't sound like anybody else, although there's an undoubted Canterbury...
Alan, Can you tell more about Antique Seeking Nuns? As for Panzerpappa, I agree. Richard Sinclair was even guesting on their first official release. The...
Antique Seeking Nuns are a UK band who have done three EPs under that name, with the same people also playing as the Joff Winks band and Numbient, but only...
... Thanks for the tip. ... They are all pretty much Canterbury-ish. And all brilliant to my ears. While we are at it, I would think folks here would like...
... Oh yes, brilliant! I only heard "Dank Side of the Morn" and don't know exactly how much the guy has released and if it's all in the same vein. This one was...

A few thoughts on Macan's analysis: Improvisation is also a key component in much Canterbury music, which links Canterbury to traditional jazz, as well as...
I have a few reactions to these interesting writings by Mr. Smit, and Mr. Macan. First and foremost, I don't want this to become some kind of nationalistic...
I remember a previous discussion on this list where Leonardo was seeing Graham Bond as the originator of jazz-rock! (which I'm still not entirely convinced of)...
In France, you have to remember one thing. The music business classified music in a very primitive way: classical or not classical, called then entertainment!...
Thanks to all the contributions brought in until further, it's getting entlightening and very rich in learnings! ... I totally agree with this. ... Another way...
I know what my Canterbury is. You know what your Canterbury is. And though we may disagree on the finer points, we all know what Canterbury is. That's why we...
... A more direct Canterbury connection : Mariano is the sax player on Pierre Moerlen's Gong album "Leave it open". I've always wondered how he came to be...
Hello Pierre, ... You seem to like the Belgians ;) Sorry to tell you that Supersister was a Dutch band and Philip Catherine was born in London. Only his father...
