Lines of transit - (Adam Nolan, Lukas Suzzi, Urbuli Baba)
Here's a fun little collab with Adam Nolan, a terrific sax player from Ireland, and my friend Lukas Suzzi from Denver! I'd be meaning to play something with Adam for a long time, but never got to meet him in real life yet, and since I had recorded a little guitar-drums duet with Lukas Suzzi (who's already been featured a few times on this channel) last time he came to visit me, I thought I'd ask Adam to record a sax solo for it!
As often with those types of experiments, it can be hard to make the track sound as though we were all three physically present in the same room (while in fact Adam's part was recorded separately), but I hope it might sound convincing enough!
Though I'd actually heard of Adam before I got to know Brian Kastan, it so happens that Brian and Adam recorded and released an album earlier this year in NY! It's quite a gem of an album too - and you can find it on Brian's website:

มุมมอง 363หลายเดือนก่อน
I strongly recommend the use of earphones for this one! Believe it or not, I'd just told Roland, before starting to record, that we'd play something abstract that would slowly morph into a funk, for a change! The said funk never saw the light of day, as we got a bit carried away by our love for abstract music... Oh well, our next tune will be a tribute to Kool & the Gang, I promise! Roland Devo...

Impervious to the wild, unfettered boisterousnous of Agen's nightlife (which has earned it its nickname of "Rio de Janeiro of Southern France"), Roland and I kept our nose to the grindstone well past midnight and recorded this little musical oddity at the end of a long session last week, to the delight of beslumbered neighbours and tawny owls, looking in wide-eyed bewilderment at our feverish g...

Finally a new recording with Cheryl & Max! This is a tribute to a painter I've long been fond of : (from Max's channel) "Antoni Tàpies was a Catalan painter, sculptor and art theorist. In 1948, Tàpies helped co-found the first post-war movement in Spain known as Dau al Set which was connected to the Surrealist and Dadaist Movements. Tàpies originally thought of himself as a surrealist painter a...

Probably our best duo session thus far! Roland (the Bermuda shorts-clad gentleman on the left) initially had some misgivings about my publishing this video, lest people should notice he was wearing Bermuda shorts (a garment that ill-becomes the serious-minded jazzman in his view), but I eventually assuaged his fears after promising I wouldn't draw attention to the fact he was wearing Bermuda sh...

Until I eventually sort through the many hours' worth of recordings we've made, I thought I'd share this little plein-air session on the banks of the Garonne river! My cell phone ran out of space soon after the beginning of the first improv, so I asked Roland to shoot a little video of the...

Entre l'un et l'autre deux gosses échappés de la surveillance de leurs parents (ou autres maitres), (c'est sûr ils ont fait le mur !) arpentant en tous sens dans un délire savoureux criant, riant, gloussant, murmurant, les couloirs déserts d'une école la nuit ....
