Naked City with John Zorn!

Hi everyone,


Another week of John Zorn, since I got asked last minute to make a show. This one he recorded with a group called Naked City in 1998. The group included guitarist Bill Frisell, keyboardist Wayne Horvitz, bassist Fred Frith, drummer Joey Baron, and guest vocalist Yamatsuka Eye. Old rock-style songs, movie themes, and some really cool Zorn-y weirdness. An hour of fun!

Old School Zorn!

Hi everyone,

Anyone who knows me knows I love me some John Zorn. His music is beautiful, strange, creepy, dreamy, on & on. But, lately, his albums have been way to prog-metal for my tastes. So I dug out some old stuff of his to play, & cheered me right up! This show features Elegy from 1992, Aporias: Requia for Piano & Orchestra,  & a few from 1993's Kristallnacht. Wonderful music! Turn out your lights & let him swoop in to entertain :)

PeaceNstarZ,
