The On The One Anniversary Party with UFO, Kruder & Dorfmeister,
Takemura, Omar and everybody else was awesome! A wonderful feeling of
musical appreciation came over me agian after so long. The day was
great, full of new, experimental tracks to keep people moving. Great
percussion, jungle (I can't beliee I'm saying that!)wierdo futuristic
things and Rafael from UFO! Only drawback was that there wasn't much
jazz or soul - mostly electronic music.
Anyhow it was a fine day, well organized, great vibe, sun, organics,
good friends, Angel, Gerry V, Felix, Andrew, On The One Posse,
Bellisima, Impluse (New John Coltrane rereleases on vintage vinyl).
Anyone in the Colorado Area, go check out Hard Bop on Tuesdays with DJs
K-Nee and Aztec - a growing, bubbling sub-culture of jazz, hip-hop and
the mountains...
Friday at Cafe Du Nord - Anne Dyer and the No Good Time Fairies -
excellent experimental jazz, counter times, flat chords, female vocals
