Banned Rehearsal 779 (August 2010 - Karen Eisenbrey, Keith Eisenbrey, Neal Meyer)
The genius of Banned Rehearsal, when it is working, is not geared toward brilliant performance, but consists in a focusing in upon specificities of sound. This session begins with a transparent 'combo' vibe with drums, cornet, piano, and tub bass, then transforms itself into a study of the texture of drumheads, bells, and cymbals.

If J. K. Randall is a self-proclaimed pitch freak, then S. L. Weiss must be a figuration-pattern freak. In this I recognize, aspirationally, a kindred spirit.

Step to one side and it's The Beatles, to the other and it's Queen, with extra reverb.

I wonder if the harsh engineering was designed with the presumed sub-standard listening devices of the target audience in mind, rather than those of the hi-fi crowd.
