I largely agree with Richard's observations esp on the sonic quality.
One feels trapped choosing between the poor vinyl of the limited BASE
reissues and the poor remastering (on at least 3 of the 5) ZYX ESP
reissues I have.  Clearly, I am *not* going to replace, with CDs, my
orig ESPs which number a total of 2 LPs :-)

Of the ZYX's I think the Ornette Coleman TOWN HALL 1962 is
undoubtedly the best. I haven't heard the original ESP LP but the CD
sounds clean and the mix is fairly good. This may be attributed to
the original master being good and available. Paul Bley's BARRAGE
seems to have been taken from a clean vinyl copy and even then the
remastering isn't good. Of the 6 ZYX's currently in Tower this is the
worst sounding. The short length isn't that encouraging either. I
guess the only minor consolation is the $12 price.

Hi
I recently saw an ad in Tower Records' PULSE magazine for an album by
guitarist Grant Geissman on  enja/bluemoon  records.  This is interesting
to me because i have an extremely obscure record by the 1973 Blue Saints,
which features Grant Geissman, rhythm guitar.  The album (which is so 
obscure, its on the Custom Fidelity label,) is "big band jazz rock," and
the Blue Saints were apparently the big band of the Boy Scouts, or some
sort of scouts, in the San Francisco Bay Area around 73.

So my question is, does anyone know the background of the Grant Geissman
who's signed?  And if it might be the same guy?

I sincerely hope i'm in the right place, based on my assumption that the
label he's on is a jazz label, from the ad.  

If anyone knows anything more specific, thats great.  The bandleader
of these people was Doc Upton, in case that means anything.

The Blue Saints album, "No Free Looking", (a European concert tour album)
is excellent.

please email carhart@netcom.com with anything.
thanks!

Starting this fall, on a quarterly basis Gray Areas will review live

Allmans, Zappa, Little Feat, Led Zeppelin, Phish, REM, etc.

We'll also examine other gray areas of legal and moral controversy such as
computer crimes and viruses and the adult film business. Gray Areas will
also devote a large amount of space to the small press with reviews of
hundreds of 'zines covering a mind blowing array of vital topics. There
will also be reviews of books, cool catalogs, compact discs, concerts, etc.

The first issue is 84 pages and has a 4-color cover with artwork by 60's
poster artist Wes Wilson. The inside pages are glossy and recycled. We plan
to act as sort of a gathering place to discuss alternative lifestyles,
potentially illegal acts, and those considered immoral.                                                  

Gray Areas is $18/4 issue subscription ($26 foreign). $5/first issue ($7

You haven't figured out how to do it yet.  It'll come.

A large percentage of the 'Bluesy' recorded music you're

Blues Harps have softer reeds than Marine Bands.  It's easier
to bend the reeds.  Blues Harps aren't as loud as Marine
Bands and don't last as long.

Check out Hohner Special 20s, which are made with plastic
spacers instead of the Marine Band's wood.  No more cut
lips from swelling wood.
 Hohner also makes "Cross Harps" which are about $40.  I wonder

I don't think I said I didn't like it, just that it was nothing at all like

Maybe it does.  Some musicians have told me that Fish no longer provides
the artist with many of the benefits of recording on a "major" label.
For example, the musician is responsible for sending copies to radio
stations (for which he/she must buy copies from Fish).  Perhaps it is
also the artist's responsibility to talk record stores into ordering the
album from Fish.

Just a guess.

The lyrics are, to the best of my recollection, in The Oxford Book of Ballads,
edited by Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch.  If not there, in The Oxford Book of
English Poetry, edited by the same man.

The lyrics refer to the journey of the soul after death, metaphorically 
conceived as a journey across a moor.  They are interesting because, though
the message is nominally Christian (cf. the refrain "And Christ receive thy
soul"), there is clearly a version of the Karma concept present:

 "If ever thou gavest hosen and shoon,
  Then sit thee down and and put them on;
  If hosen and shoon thou ne'er gavest nane,
  The whins shall prick thee to the bare bane".

The melody as we have it is not traditional (yet), having been put together
by Hans Fried in the 1960s.  (Where is he now? Surely not still at Collett's?)

Hmmmm..

The one picture I've seen of a Viola da Gamba shows _seven_ strings (I
guess if one had six fingers  9-)  ).  

There were all kinds of weird viols ranging in size from violin to 
double bass in size from what my friends tell me. There was also some-
thing called the Viola d' Amore. The smaller ones were played held 
between the knees (unlike the cello, there wasn't a spike thing to 
fit into the strap on the floor - your knees held it off the ground
and the soundboard faced the audience. The larger ones (according 
to a picture I've seen) were played with the bottom of the instrument 
resting on the floor (or it might have had a spike thing) and the 
whole instrument was held off sideways... looks like a bunch of drun-
ken cellists 9-) The picture showed a whole viol orchestra.

I first heard "Summerfly" done by Maura O'Connell live on "Best of Mountain
Stage Vol. 2."  The instrumentation is awesome (the dobro is a wonderful) 
compared to Cheryl's original recording on "Half a Book".

I do appreciate Cheryls vocals, though.  Heck, it's her song and she does
a fantastic job with it.  I'd love to hear Cheryl sing with more backup on 
this one.  (My hat's off to Maura's band for doing such a fine job of 
interpretting it.)

BTW, I just saw Maura at the Rocky Mountain Folks Festival and she IS GOOD
live ... though, I would have to agree that some of her studio cuts drag a
little, including her studio version of "Summerfly".  But didn't she do a 
great job covering Tom Wait's "Broken Bicycles"?!

This was done by the Carter Family.  Likely the person who gets
the official credit for writing it is A. P. Carter.  
I can check this as I have the sheet music at home.  However like
Hank Williams the rumour is that A. P. wasn't above stealing a song
here and there.  More particularly many of the Carter Family songs
supposedly well known songs that were essentially public domain
until ol' A. P. came along.

The same lyric was set by Benjamin Britten as part of the
_Serenade for Tenor, Horn, and Strings_, of which many
recordings exist.  The melody used by Britten bears some
resemblance to the one sung by Pentangle.  I suspect that it
may have come to their attention through Britten's piece,
which was then (and still is) one of his better known and
more commonly performed compositions.

Most recordings of the _Serenade_ print the words in the
accompanying booklet.
