Favoriting Explorers Room with Flash Strap: Playlist from February 8, 2024 Favoriting

Flash Strap's avatar View Flash Strap's profile Favoriting

This is where all of culture and all of time are collapsed into one seductive portal and viewed through the panoramic lens of the exotic. Come and embark on an armchair-travel virtual-voyage to the heart of timeless darkness and beyond; embrace the numinous monolith of the exotic immensity. Let us find that place where hybridization meets its destiny as pure fantasy. Let us become observers observing those others who are ourselves. You wear your mask and I'll wear mine.

Correct, WR, but then there are lines like these:
"He was obstinate, cranky and consumed with the beauty of common objects; he persisted with his art in the face of enormous loneliness. Living with his mother and his disabled brother, he found his inspiration in the work of other artists and dedicated his boxes to figures ranging from the composer Franz Schubert to the poet Emily Dickinson to the television actress Patty Duke."

Avatar 8:10pm
Flash Strap:

Waldron started out playing with Mingus, Abbey Lincoln, Max Roach, etc. with something of a different style. in '63 he had a heroin overdose that left him unable to remember music or how to play. He had to slowly redevelop his skills and his resultant, now-defining style is this unique, angular, Monk-inspired technique: "likened to American minimalism: a slow accretion of almost subliminal harmonic and rhythmic shifts steadily pile up until the music seems ready to overbalance"

due to the way the liner notes are written, there is some conjecture as to whether Mal is actually playing on this record (alongside Lafayette Hudson & other members of the Lafayette Afro Rock Band!), or whether he just wrote / conducted. I think he's playing but I'm not sure
