Hi everyone,

John Zorn's Ballades & Lamentations!

Hi everyone,

John Zorn's 2024 Ballades & Lamentations are the last two of wonderful run of Zorn brilliance I've been featuring on this show recently. Mr. Zorn is 71 years old & brilliant as ever. Find the deep comfort here, if you need it . . .

John. Zorn's Nothing Is As Real As Nothing!

Hi everyone,

Free Jazz Collective writes: "Composed by, arranged by, and produced by John Zorn, the music on Nothing Is As Real As Nothing continues Zorn’s exploration of music for guitar. Zorn brings together three guitarists, Bill Frisell, Gyan Riley, and Julian Lage, all outstanding musicians on their own right, to perform compositions that blend their contributions together in gentle undulating lines - lines that bring to mind sea journeys and distant shorelines."

This music calmed me this week, when nothing else could. Where there's life, there's hope.

John Zorn's New Masada Quartet, Volume Three!

Hi everyone,

This record was recorded live on May 24, 2024 at Roulette in Brooklyn, New York. Crazy but playful. Master jazz players at work. Wish I'd been there!
