"I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I could'nt see where you were going or what you were going for. This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot." (Visit homepage.)

A conversation between JA, Peter Kerlin (Sunwatchers, and Animal Surrender), and me at the BASIC show Wednesday night:

JA: The Arkestra is playing Winter Jazz Fest.
Me: I've never seen the Arkestra.
JA: What? No.
Peter Kerlin: That can't be right.
JA: What are you doing?
Kerlin: You need to get with it, you don't have much time.
Me: I know.
Kerlin: And Marshall Allen pretty much only plays around here, so you don't have that excuse. He plays Philly, DC, and NYC.
Me: What else is there, really?
Kerlin: Look at us East Coast elites.
Me: We deserve what we get.

And this is at least one person on every meeting every week. One woman has consistently not been able to get her mic to work for 6 months of weekly meetings and nobody has called her out on it.

So back in '85 Deep Purple's tour bus broke down in Princeton Junction (aside: Princeton Junction no longer exists, it merged with neighboring Princeton). The bus had a multiple tire blowout, and there was but one spare. JA was still a kid, but he had his learner's permit, and it wasn't dark yet as he happened to pass by. About a mile after the bus he recognized Ian Paice rolling two mostly flat spare tires down the highway. JA stopped and asked if he needed help. Paice was near panick (British spelling, you can hear in the way the Brits say it that they spell it that way). Their show was in Trenton and they only had three hours to get there with their gear.

JA had a tape deck in the 1980 Volvo he was driving, and stuck in the deck was a bootleg of what was at that time believed to be the final recorded live performance of John Coltrane. What's more, the tape deck was stuck at just below half speed. Paice got in the car with the two spares and JA hit play, and then a jazz miracle occurred. Whenever the tape was playing, time slowed down to just a little less than half its normal speed. JA was able to get the two tires pumped up and installed, and Deep Purple made it to the show with an hour to spare.

About six months later, the 1980 Volvo's engine died. Mysteriously, the tape deck continued working with no engine, and even with no battery. It's rumoured (again: British spelling) that this tape deck is still playing that bootleg concert to this day. So if you're ever in a south Jersey junkyard and you hear slowed down strains of a sax blowing "Offering," you might find it blasting from that slate grey '80 Volvo. Take a moment to climb inside.

This morning was intense JA but it was a good argument. Initially I held the same opinion as Clay but now I kinda see your point that maybe it’s Ok to wash dishes and tend bar and play music and you’re still a musician either way.

I’ve always rooted for small up and coming artists I admired to give up selling houses and make a living just doing music …..because I don’t want them to be boring normal people like me.
