Obscure musical gems, avant experimentation, and classics worth rehearing. A conurbation of Leslie speakers, timbales, plungers, arch-tops, tablas, and squeaky reeds. Black ties, pork pies, Cuban boots, Nudie suits, bobbysocks, turtlenecks, and high-heeled sneakers. Jazz is the north star but it’s a wide universe, so says The Laughing Clock.

(readers in the future, sorry that link might go away in a few weeks)
OK, so I get the first two SM albums when they come out. SM 3 is coming out on Columbia Records, we read in rock and roll press that they are touring. I say we, I work in a big record store in Dallas and we in the store start asking the Columbia salesman if he can get details on where SM will be appearing because we want to be there. We make a big deal of it and he calls back and says that he checked and they are only playing NY & California. We are broke record store hippies and bummed.
A few months later I move to San Antonio where the company is opening a new store. As usual, I often play Soft Machine in the store. A new friend in San Antonio tells me that SM played there, that he heard they played in Houston as well. . .
After Wyatt left Soft Machine my interest went down so never saw any of the later iterations of the band either.
Dean:
When Sharp played the Other Minds festival a few years back, she volunteered to take him from his hotel to the venue. (I had the pleasure of taking Roscoe Mitchell from his hotel to the airport. Problem was that nobody told me his entire ensemble would be with him...)

The structure of improvisation has surely been addressed by Baroque musicians and scholars.

A friend took me to a Jackson Pollock exhibit (did i spell his name right?).. I didn't get it AT ALL. But I did learn that he didn't listen to "modern" music; he listened to '20's-30's jazz.

Drivers should be happy? Content? Sorry, not on this planet. If the opportunity every arises (not likely) do NOT vote for me for Emperor. I will immediately impose a 1-strike-and-you-are-so-far-out-of-here-that-your-Thomas-Guide-won't-help-you. Any moving violation? Bye, bye. No more driving.

I was once at an orchestra concert where the tuba player (who had at least two different instruments at hand) had the wrong instrument in his lap when he had a solo passage, and had to transpose on the fly. I saw all my friends in the string section exchange startled looks as they didn't understand why the first note was wrong
