With billows and blasts from choirs and orchesters
Buskers and talkers
Big bands and squawkers,
the Stork Club has retained its qualities of decaying elegance and dwindling significance since the late 1950s.

I know his birthday isn't today, but years ago I got into a mild argument with a coworker about Braxton. We both liked the music, but for widely different reasons, and our disagreement got heated.

My god, the indelibility of Laurie Anderson’s work. I don’t think I’ve heard “Let X=X” for 30+ years and I was singing/speaking right along. Monumental and immediate.
Avatar 1:57pm
Stork:

@Jeff G. - she is for me one of those formative NY musicians of the 70/80's that having heard her ended whatever resistance to my budding musically obsessions that there theoretically might have been. Ditto Glass.

Weird thing is that I tend to associate Lucinda Childs with Glass, even though I like Available Light much more. To the point I forgot the music, maybe. Dance remains important, but I resent how it overshadows other things
Avatar 🥁 2:09pm
Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

Of course Laurie Anderson is perplexingly & impressively bivalent in being so representative of the Avant-garde in its strangeness & intellectual remove - & yet so Human & accessible & affectively potent ...the perfect ♊︎Gemini ...like BobDylan, both just channeling the Information in a really gifted manner - & also somehow reflecting on it & even commenting on it as an Auteur @ the same moment.
...& / Or ...maybe as a Woman (& ♊︎Gemini / Messenger ☿Mercury is Traditionally Neutral & the Alchemical Catalyst...) - Anderson adds to the Avant-garde the Feminine - in a way like I think Frida Kahlo & KateBush do to their male-dominated fields...

And of course I've been to some of her live shows at various places in her evolution... and one of the main things I remember those performances having in common (aside from my always enjoying the experience in general) is that I always ended up finding it just a *little* annoying that she often paused just a little bit too long after saying something clever to make sure the audience got it before moving on.

She captured a lot, which means it will take time to sort what was hers and what was being there. Which maybe shouldn't matter in the first place

Hello Stork and swells. I arrive at the club in the same way I do the work of Laurie Anderson: better late than never.*

* Better Late Than Never
2oz Glen Passaic
3/4 oz Fernet Branca
1/4 oz Maraschino cherry juice
Stir over ice, serve hastily in a chilled coupe or a hot hatchback.

Always say I have a special respect / appreciation / awe for Artists who (successfully) create their own Palette. She kind of conveniently represents this.

I'm reading a Pynchon novel right now, "Against the Day," a book so fat it's almost cubic. Come to think of it, Pynchon might best be dosed by the cc.

A Mormon whiskey called Valley Tan turned up in the last chapter. Glen Passaic can't be far behind.

@adamdoesit: Pynchon's books are getting shorter, though I haven't been keeping up (I'm focused on Colson Whitehead hese days)

It's like her voice changed !...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:05pm
adamdoesit:

fred, I'm getting shorter with age, too, so why not? I prefer short books as a rule, but give Pynchon a pass, so long as he keeps up a good ratio of funny names per page. I haven't delved into Colson Whitehead yet, but there's a book or two of his around here, so maybe next…

@adamdoesit: re: Whitehead, maybe give a pass if those are the popular ones (Underground Railroad, Nickel Boys), these are not his best. Harlem Shuffle is great, as are his earlier ones (I love John Henry Days, The Intuitionist is great too)

Agree Laurie ! Sign Language with Gorillas is as impressive a boundary crossing to me as some jock golfing on the Moon.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:40pm
fred:

@Stork: I don't know much. It was important to disguise voices on both sides to get candid testimony. The software tended to get out of sync after a while, so I used a Ginsberg reading from UbuWeb as a test case. I fixed the small issue, I'm not sure the trial fixed the real one
