Great post.

Tom Cora pulled music out of his cello that was absolutely gorgeous. He was a wonderful part of Curlew...in itself a crazy, wild, totally fun group of ace musicians. Really, really nice to find them here...thanks for posting!

Smoking. They were a great band, and (so what else is new...) should've gotten a lot more recognition at the time.

[@AMeatBeetle]

Amazing.

[@sicherheit]

Great stuff, I got to see them once, around this time, in Pittsburgh.

[@tonysalvador1160]

Great stuff! Thanks for posting!

[@nchune]

I can appreciate this comment, Felipe, though perhaps my sense of what constitutes art is a bit broader than the limits you put on it. I do like being challenged and find the most profound artistic experiences to come from such places. One of the reasons I enjoy free improv is exactly because of the spontaneity you celebrate. That spontaneity can lead many directions - sometimes to places of ecstasy, sometimes to complete breakdown of communication. That's what makes it so thrilling.

you are, of course, credited appropriately on the DVD, Bob

Need to do a music video with these rads.

[@db1958]

This Knitting Factory performance is a rippin' show (almost 90 minutes). It was difficult to select one piece for posting here to announce the re-release. The DC Space performance which adds Amy Denio on voice in one set (there are two 30 minute performances from this show also on the DVD) is also quite impressive.

[@db1958]

btw, I consider Curlew structured improv. That said, I've experienced some of the members of Curlew in other solo or group situations inspiring me to those moments of free-improv unpredictability & ecstasy.

Where am I on youtube right now? How did I click to here?

[@kuujjuaq58]

What did you click to get "here." Why did you do it? It's cool, you made it here!

[@sicherheit]

@nchune I was at that The Ex show, as well.

[@EdgarFrantz]

HELLO9, Very confued///?? hit Curlew...wow...

[@curlaw]

likeliks

[@db1958]

1. You seem like a fun and easy going guy 2. Who calls Curlew Free-Jazz? 3. Why should Cuneiform be confined to releasing only Free-Jazz? 4. Why should Mujician care what else Cuneiform releases if they are happy with their relationship with Cuneiform? 5. I ALWAYS had a great time at Curlew shows 6. Haven't you got something better to do than troll here? 7. Why don't you find a Mujician video and repost your first comment there? Makes a lot more sense.

[@kuujjuaq58]

Restricted-Jazz.

[@db1958]

Mujician: don't ever listen to someone who writes their posts entirely with the caps lock key on. ;)
