It was very much discussed here in Vienna, it´s top musicians, and it was spinned very often in that fancy old jazzclub "Spelunke" which we had. When there was not live music (anyway, you could play live only from 19.00 - 22.00 because it was an old building and other families had their appartments there), they spinned all those fine records, and we the regulars sittin at the bar discussed the music , just wonderful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted October 22, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2021 (almost) Universally reviled, and I get that, but...the energy that this band puts into these charts (only one by Ellis!) is quite real...although what the quality of that energy is...not sure about that. But geez this is one big ball of burning odd-meter fuquitousness, aimed at....something. A lot of energy, and produced by Teo Macero. If the aim was to get radio play, I'm reminded of the first time I heard the Ronettes record of "I Wish I Never Saw The Sunshine":, it was like, GOOD GOD, that is so NOT going to get on the radio, it will scare people in the kind of way that people don't like to get sacred.

And then...no he was going do more, but it was certainly less... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
