Hello hello

good evening

Good evening Rick and I Heart!!

smile... happy Friday

Good evening all. Apparently Wayne Kramer has died

not so happy

Wow had not heard.

https://www.stereogum.com/2250124/mc5s-wayne-kramer-dead-at-75/news/

Did this announce happen before or after Kick Out the Jams?

Kick out the James, rather...

it was the Jlin track you heard performed at the Rainbow Room?

This reminds me a lot of the music I heard during those transformation vids - when someone is shown throughout years

I wonder if that was Glass as well

The Jlin piece I heard at Rainbow Room was with Kronos. Completely different Glass piece arranged for Kronos by Jacob Garchik.

Same vibe though.

sweet opening half hour

Thx BC (host) Free Association is always an exquisite experience!

Thank you!!!

excellent show so far Brian!

Hey Jeff! Thank you sir.

Are you live, or are you...

really dug the Fire Orchestra piece. I always come away from each FA with a handful of artists / albums to check out. Great show tonight!

Thanks Kyle. That's really great to hear. Yes that Fire Orchestra record is fantastic. Love the string arrangements on that. Wonder who wrote those, if it was Mats or someone else. Will have to look up.

I'm live PiGal

If I'm on the chat I'm live, if not it's a rerun or newly uploaded show

even better second half hour

That's a beautiful song

Nick Drake

Thanks Rick...we're on a roll here

Yes this one gives me the shivers...

Nice video for it too somewhere on Youtube

Folk/drone hybrid

Yeah!

Anyone seen the new Birthday Party documentary?

Showed at the Brattle a couple months ago I think

Heard of it, for sure

Missed it up here in PNW... hoping it shows up on a streaming platform

Oh, Rhapsody in Blue

I was just reading a piece that heavily criticized Gershwin/RiB for stealing from black musicians

very weird...

Good call. 100th anniversary of this piece

https://www.nytimes.com/2024/01/26/arts/music/george-gershwin-rhapsody-in-blue.html

NY Times, of all places...

I read that piece by Ethan. Tickled by it.

A lot of fuss over it. I think he was trying to stir the pot on that one.

Yeah - I don't know if its worth taking music criticism by big media seriously anymore. Washington Post did thinkpiece on Ben Shapiro raps

Well the author of that piece is a great pianist/composer himself. Used to play in The Bad Plus.

Still it comes off as kinda...harsh

Brutal

In fact he has a new piano sonata out that is pretty incredible...will play later.

Well the title is harsh but I think it's well-written. Don't really agree with it though. I love the piece.

Me too. I think its one of the greatest compositions of the 20th century.

Actually playing Ethan's piano sonata after this will be hilarious. Let's see how he stacks up after writing that hatchet job haha.

Kind of a midway between jazz and classical music

Yeah! Love it.

This particular version was performed by NY Phil for Woody Allen's Manhattan, 1979. One of the great openings in film history.

fits wonderfully into the show

They play that one a lot on classical radio

Thank you. It seemed to be a good fit after the epic orchestral backing of Scott Walker piece "Mathilde".

yeah

Yeah, this does sound Gershwin-influenced

Unquestionably

Happy Friday. Enjoying the show tonight.

Happy Friday Gary. Thank you.

This sounds kinda bluesy - had no idea MC5 did blues...

Yeah this is a great track

Wayne sounds great on this. Guitar sounds fantastic

thanks for everything....including the kitchen sink even

Thank you!!
