"I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I could'nt see where you were going or what you were going for. This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot." (Visit homepage.)

Webhamster Henry:

RPI is the home of EMPAC and the C.R.A.I.V.E. Lab ( a 360 degree projection room with about 120 speakers behind the screens). I was visiting as part of my association with Pauline Oliveros, who taught there for many years.
I have a tiny cut on the same CD as Rolnick, Cuneiform Records' "Transforms: The Nerve Events Project"

Alan Arkin was also in the great kids' folk music band The Babysitters!

This reminds me of "Oh Sheit it's X" by Thundercat. In a weird sideways way. A totally wild fretless bass solo would work here. Please send these notes along to Watson.

"E-mair-jon-cy, everybody off street" is how I'll always remember Alan Arkin (referenced upthread) from "The Russians Are Coming". The character wqs always "correcting" the English pronunciation of his underlings when they were correct.
