Not directly related to the above, but I've been wanting to ask which, if
any, of Spooky's recordings is the jazziest. Something with horns like
the above session. I've got "found sound" and someone on the list has
mentioned "necropolis." And I saw a recent recording in the store that
has "dead" in the title, I believe, but that's all I can recall. I didn't
pick it up because I want something that's a little jazzier than "found
sound." Any suggestions?
