Kronos Quartet on NIghtmusic

[grandfunkie]

Zappa.

[FOBmuzungu]

they make good evil and evil good in the New World Order

[Guitarman27]

Human thought is rarely coherent and beautiful ... this portrays man at his most labyrinthine state.

[acoronab]

I liked it. But really think these musicians should loosen up ;)

[jymdonovan]

unless you like experimental music, or at least have an open ear to new sounds you shouldn't condemn this wonderful, over wrought cacophony of sonic expression; liken it to Jazz all you want but this is Noise in all its discord, enterprising, startling goodness. This IS more discord then a lot of Kronos, but a nice way to end a show.

[McMingDynasty]

wth is this crap??

[fatasterisk]

I will never cease to wonder at how honky music nerds can "know" what long dead blues musicians taste in music is.

[LocoMole]

such an awful arrangement, I'm sure this would have had the Wolf howlin' in his grave

[gooeyfruitbat69]

But Mingus would have unnerstood it... & Sun Ra grooved it...

[LocoMole]

Mingus & Sunny were both genius bluesmen, it's more probable they'd have barfed

[gooeyfruitbat69]

Okay mayhaps amused at least... I think it is possible that Sun Ra would have like this tho'(Ra did work with John Cage once)...Ra might even been inspired to respond to it with his own version.

[LocoMole]

It's possible Sun Ra would have liked Britney Spears too, but I very much doubt it.

SUn Ra didn't need sheet music to interpret the blues

[HumanworkshopRecords]

@LocoMole Yeah barfed all over your comment

[grifgraf]

On this same show, they did a cover of Hendrix's Purple Haze that was insane!
