The picture I made |
Uses dampers as filters to extract partials
silence is resilient
behind me Karen purees pumpkin
time out of grid
a car stereo drives by outside
sidebar tea ceremony
that a sound could seem to happen Now is a demonstration of how wide a span is the apprehension of Now
Thursday After - Youth Rescue Mission [from Youth Rescue Mission]
adding elements one after another in stepped sequence
within song structure serious phrase length rhythm play
blood harmony could almost be the Fleetwoods at the end (just a hint)
Gradus 285 - Neal Kosály-Meyer
I made a picture.

The Hunts Upp - William Byrd - Elizabeth Farr [from My Ladye Nevells Booke]
ringing echoes
signals passed on hills
familial tales
courtly tales
Der Kunst der Fuge, Contrapunctus XVII Rectus / Inversus - J. S. Bach - Zoltan Kocsis
strong vertical leaps up? down? contribute to the effect of utter duplication
is it the direction of the leap or its mere distance that tells?
Gatemouth - Kid Ory, Johnny Dodds [from Alan Lowe's That Devilin' Tune]
sliding around the pitch, glisswise
a dance of them
this music is not dance music
this music is dance
Roll Columbia, Roll - Woody Guthrie [from Columbia River Collection]
Progress celebrated, collective progress, progress to benefit us'n'all.
For Miles and Miles - Art Pepper, Chet Baker [from Playboys]
phenomenal playing full of subtleties to be sure but something bluesy has been buffed out if it, refined in an almost pretentious way, if they weren't getting away with it pretty bossly
Echo Song - Orlando di Lasso - Lake Washington Singers, Betty Eisenbrey, Joanne Deacon [from A Musical Souvenir: The Lake Washington Singers Spring Concert (April 11, 1961)]
humored up? or just oddly translated, odderly arranged? or maybe that's just the way it is
Hold On I'm Comin' - Sam and Dave [collected from Dave Marsh's The Heart of Rock & Soul]
thought: jazz is about its rhythm; rock is about its song structure; blues is the glue
these boys have heard some church singin' and how
The Song Is Over - The Who [from Who's Next]
praise chorus
testimony
psalm

Song of Fifty Cents - Jack Bean [from The Art of Field Recording Volume 1]
another function of demotic music
actual advice in humorous guise
(not that, but like dirty jokes as ad hoc sex ed)
how it is learned: those life lessons
quite the accent, one needs to pay more than fifty cents of close attention
Improvisation - University of Washington Contemporary Group Improvisation Ensemble [from Neal's Recital Tape]
Conversation wordlessly, as musical exercise.
You Get What You Want - Julian Lennon [from The Secret Value of Daydreaming]
this tries so hard, but I have trouble giving it the benefit of the doubt. The problem is not his singing voice, but something like a lack of roots.

Banned Rehearsal 254 - John E, Karen Eisenbrey, Keith Eisenbrey, Aaron Keyt [April 1991]
testing 1 2 3
now we have begun
at Toad Hall some crud in it
John 'plains, but 4 weeks old
strenuously lame we thus arrange the possibility of brief moments unlike any others
drill bit into bedrock inexorant
on my wall
there hangs a purple trout
continues on through
metabolism enhanced
be- words auf Deutsch
bell rings for train coming in
Hail Hail - Pearl Jam [from Rearviewmirror]
propelled
engined
til the fuel runs out
the ride is over
In Session at the Tintinabulary

Banned Rehearsal 946 - Karen Eisenbrey, Keith Eisenbrey, Steve Kennedy, Aaron Keyt, Neal Kosály-Meyer
Aaron and Neal duet on trumpet and cornet, Karen drums an ocean, Steve tunes in, and there is me with banjo on my knee
