In the earliest '80s, I saw a Mingus rep band with Don Pullen and Mike Richmond. (Was that Mingus Fantasy? I can't recall the name.) Pretty amazingly great. In that show, Pullen dislocated a finger in the middle of a punishing piano solo. He pulled his digit back into position and kept pounding. Must've been in intense pain, but you couldn't tell it.

The "pedia" in this case was my recollection of liner notes. I heard MBB at Fez under Time Cafe about 15 years ago. The cafe was jam-packed and the subway rumbled periodically under the floor. Quite a show.

Doug Schulkind:

The Mingus Big Band had that looooong residency at Fez. For a while in the mid-'90s, I was in charge of organizing WFMU's ticket giveaways. Virtually every club and venue was generous and pleased to offer free tickets to WFMU for giveaways. Fez was great, too, but for the Mingus Big Band shows, I had to deal directly with Sue Mingus, and she was a beast. She demanded to know which shows/DJs were going to give away the tickets and she wanted to hear recordings of how the giveaways were announced. She wanted to be assured that the tickets would be given away on purely jazz shows. It was explained that WFMU didn't have genre-specific programming. I told her we couldn't promise that and she seemed ready to pull the plug. It was insane. I forget how it got resolved, but WFMU ended up giving away tickets to the Mingus BB shows for many years.

Alas, I didn't take his class. I wrote the paper for an unrelated seminar at another school. My guess is he taught the class while he was writing the AACM book.

Academic jargon, which mars many texts, seems proof of Burroughs dictum that language is a virus.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:24pm
Jeff Golick:

I went to an AACM event in NYC that launched the book, w/ Lewis and others discussing the AACM. It was not terribly memorable (to me), and my main recollection is that they ran out of books and I couldn't buy one there.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:25pm
listener james from westwood:

After editing such text for so long, I've built up a sort of immunity. But one does come across some beauts in ac-prose now and again. And it does have a sad knack for ironing the joy out of a topic. (Reason #29384 why I opted out of grad school.)
  1:29pm
Dean:

There's jargon and there's jargon. Worst offender in my memory is Homi K. Bhabha. Judith Butler can run a close second. But I'm a sucker for some of Derrida's mush, and to this day I return to Paul de Man's prose, despite his infamy. Not academic, but threateningly nonsensical, is John Ashbery's poetry, which to my ear does what language is supposed to do. E.g.,

In all my years as a pedestrian
serving juice to guests, it never occurred to me
thoughtfully to imagine how a radish feels.

Those are the first three lines of "This Economy." I can't love writing more.

I knew nothing of David Murray till he associated with the Grateful Dead. Sometimes that's just how it is.

I love Ashbery, Dean. Happy to wade through his flirtations with the nonsensical since they're always shot through with wonder and surprise. Wish more academics tried to transform their jargon into something that alive.

Just seen Whiplash - would you agree with me the film portrays the wrong end of jazz- I mean the boring, Lincoln Center, Wynton Marsalis view that somehow just must conform to a so called golden period standard set somewhere between 1940 -1960?

As for jargon, the worst language offenses seem to come out of business-speak these days, where layoffs = "right-sizing" etc. But my current situation in the publishing "space" might be coloring this view at the moment...

I'm going to change the subject. Thanks to ELO, I can't get "Can't Get It Out of My Head" out of my head.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:42pm
Uncle Michael:

I haven't seen Whiplash but the criticism I've read of it describes it such that I'm put in mind of sports and military movies like "Rocky," and "An Officer and a Gentleman." The criticism describes the arts as being portrayed in a manner that seems to have nothing to do with art at all.

We talked about Whiplash on the show a few months back. It's ludicrous in how it portrays the jazz world and creative pursuits in general. The military movie comparison is apt - the teacher is straight out of Full Metal Jacket. There's a great review of it on the Talkhouse by the drummer from Oneida that's worth yr time.
