Noisy abstract improviser,Takayanagi Masayuki's New Direction,give us some light relief from the intense sax abuse of Abe Kaoru. Reed duties on this one fall in the capable,but gentler hands of Mototeru Takagi.
The guitar-work is suitably cacophonous, and the drumming adequately busy,which makes for another challenging live improv captured on tape then forgotten about for twenty-five years. Another fine example of N.Senada's 'Theory Of Obscurity' in action.
PS - Recorded 11 & 12 March, 1970 at Station '70, Tokyo.
Tracklist:
1 Extraction 19:04
2 Intermittent 13:15
3 Excavation 21:08

Beautiful...

Probably i din't told you,
but i play alto e tenor sax plus several other mostly trbal wind intruments, in some free jazz projects...
ahah, and the funny thing is that you too, are going in that direction...
Actually, when many years in the past, heard gor the forst time John Coltrane with Pharoah Sanders shatterng the world, i toufht that it was the hardcore punk of black people, so here i am now...

Excellent, Skronk at its best! Takayanagi's use of feedback!
JZ, do you have the companion volume to this, "Live Independence," also on PSF (same recording dates)?
@ Lilith.....yu seem to have many hidden attributes indeedy.
Yeah, been into Free Jazz since I inherited a load of records from my Beatnik cousin who passed on. Had a liking for Archie Shepp above all others since then.....Alice Coltrane too. The japanese stuff remained out of my sphere of influence until the late nineties.
Free Jazz has the power to upset people and get stoopid people angry to this day,which maybe isn't so true for Hardcore Punk...however the Grindcore stuff can still make a normal apoplectic with rage....this cannot be said of many musics, especially a style thats been around since the early sixties.
Got any recordings of your Free jazz stuff? Ru Open to contributing some horn to an international internet collaboration...where we don't listen to each other and see what happens?
Speaking of pointless rackets....here's a cassette from the 90s of a mpls "band" called "negro".....2 guys with guitars, possibly some strings. If you download it and like it, feel free to post it. I'm quite fond of it....
