Yeah. Sounds like 15 years after the real Miles left, the true Miles came back - as rabbi. :-) A revelation. And Kenny Wollesen wears a t-shirt of the anarcho-syndicalists I really love these guys!

I can't tell you how many times I've watched this concert and just realized now that John Zorn is wearing a Mr. Bungle shirt. Love this even more now.

One of the best sax solos I've ever heard.

one of the best composers and sax players of our generation I like to think of John Zorn as the modern frank zappa or edgard varese

God, that Fender Rhodes sound....the noodling.....like a Miles Davis warmup....ah...the memories.

This cannot be "liked" enough. Work of genius. Thanks to Mezzo for broadcasting such fantastic music.

Amazing. Hypnotizing. Magic.

Yes, he uses it in the end of the video, I try to learn it, it's very hard. You have, when you play, to keep air in your cheeks, and at the same time to blow it, and to breathe by nose... My saxophone teacher made me a demonstration, this is very impressive. Non stop playing during a few minutes... Wow, respect.

Create something absolutely free, it's the best job in the world

amazing, awesome use of circular breathing

DAMN, thanks for posting this

¡Que volada! /What a trip!

Lindo, lindo, lindo!

最高やね!!!!!

Great!

Hey there, nice to see a fellow NZSM student commenting :) I'm Taliesin.

Yes!! On top of featuring more of Wolleson's awesome playing, Sex Mob has the excellent Briggan Krauss, a sax player who's only about 100 times more compelling than Zorn.

If Oliver Stone ever decides to make a movie about Zorn, he absolutely has to cast James Woods to play him.

wow...

its funny i read a interview of him on the internet from 2000 and the reporter thought that zorn was like zappa. it was interesting hearing what zorn had to say about zappa

you can always contact mezzo to know who produced this show and get a copy for non-commercial use... sometimes that works

Crazy, I'll try it with my trombone.

grazie1000 le montagne della follia lol H.P.L.

9:06 is great phrasing.

@gazzamuso you know what?thumbs up for honesty

orale chido sound

@boogster123321 What a trio that would be.

I want to find a DVD of this show too. Did you ever find out if one is available?

terrriiiiibbbblllleeeeeeee muy copado

@HipHopkins09 well the varese comparison is a little bit of a stretch but i still think of zorn as a modern day zappa of sorts. with the amount of genre shifting, prolificness, and overall quality of work, the comparison is understandable.

If any of you get the chance, see a show at Zorn's venue The Stone in NYC. It's a nonprofit place for New Music. Check it out!

on google its the second link.

Craaaaaaaaaaaaaaazy !!! View The two parts

sorry i dont have a link but if you type in john zorn interview on the first or second page youll find it. there arent that many interviews of him so it would be quick to find.

@HipHopkins09 Yeah I've seen some of those songs from that concert at the roundhouse and it was lame. I understand completely where your coming from. My favorite FZ records are stuff like Hot Rats, Grand Wazoo, Make a Jazz Noise Here, etc. Although the Q and A in the beginning seemed to be cool

YeaH" beibi.

@dhdex Electric Masada: At the Mountains of Madness

sandbrn has suprised me a few times I think its funnny people discussing the avant guarde because once you discuss it, its done. Must keep things forward at all times. Zorn sounds better than usual in this concert?????

he doesnt talk about braxton alot but i havent seen that any interviews with him so i didnt know. but he talks about carl stalling alot.

hes still alive and recording

so this is how the universe was created

@brian....some people just don't "get" you. Well I do : ) I watched Zorn crumple an empty potato chip bag around a mic at a show. Goes to show what lengths an artist will go to innovate.

no... it's exactly the same performance... they have recorded it from mezzo chanel and put on DVD... i should make a copy for myself... and i'll put it here, for sure...

does anyone know where can I get a DVD of any of his concerts?

Oh my god, this is absolutely amazing. But what a terrible place to split it ^_^

i know right, i thought he would be talking about braxton or carl stalling the entire time. but overall it was a good interview

Hey that's my torrent. ;]

my fave drummer in the world Kenny Wollesen chk. his stuff in the band "SEX MOB"

as a long verse verion ? a lttle short

Qualcuno sa se questo pezzo così com'è nel video è presente in un album di Zorn? Grazie.

hey, what's the pianist player's name pliz? would like to know more about him... thank

Any chance for a re-up?

my friend has DVD... it's illegal copy from russia...

J. Z. Planned this...

@wotasnozzle come posso non essere d'accordo !

Kokiam koncerte šitą gabalą grojo? Where were theese pieces played?

I am a big fan of John Zorn but a bigger fan of Zappa and Varese (completely obsessed with Zappa actually) and as much as I love Zorn's eclectic approach to his compositions, they never seem to transcend the generical influences he is working with at the time. Zappa's compositions..at least the bulk of them..to me, achieve a higher level of synthesis..more indistinguishable from his influences. Perhaps I'm less familiar with Zorn's catalogue..if u have any favorite compositions I'd like to hear

Actually..ignore my comment. I need to think more on it.

Modern Zappa? Zorn is only 13 years younger...

What's funny is that David Sanborn played on one of Tim Berne's albums, Diminutive Mysteries (Mostly Hemphill), a single recording whose virtues far exceed most of what could be found on John Zorn's 6 dozen albums. By the way, Zorn was never the most original Ameican musician. With his recent composed work, I think he's finally starting to bloom out of his 'weird-for-the-sake-of-weird' po-mo bullshit period. The endlessly redundant Masada empire seems to be the funding for all that.
